Title
VMCI: fix race between vmci_host_setup_notify and vmci_ctx_unset_notify
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
VMCI: fix race between vmci_host_setup_notify and vmci_ctx_unset_notify
During our test, it is found that a warning can be trigger in try_grab_folio
as follow:

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
Digging into the source, context->notify_page may init by get_user_pages_fast
and can be seen in vmci_ctx_unset_notify which will try to put_page. However
get_user_pages_fast is not finished here and lead to following
try_grab_folio warning. The race condition is shown as follow:
cpu0 cpu1
vmci_host_do_set_notify
vmci_host_setup_notify
get_user_pages_fast(uva, 1, FOLL_WRITE, &context->notify_page);
lockless_pages_from_mm
gup_pgd_range
gup_huge_pmd // update &context->notify_page
vmci_host_do_set_notify
vmci_ctx_unset_notify
notify_page = context->notify_page;
if (notify_page)
put_page(notify_page); // page is freed
__gup_longterm_locked
__get_user_pages
follow_trans_huge_pmd
try_grab_folio // warn here
To slove this, use local variable page to make notify_page can be seen
after finish get_user_pages_fast.

"scenarios": [
{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached only through `IOCTL_VMCI_SET_NOTIFY` on the `/dev/vmci` character device (`vmci_host_unlocked_ioctl` \u2192 `vmci_host_do_set_notify`), which requires local access to the host system. There is no remote or network-facing path into the VMCI host personality.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race \u2014 two threads issuing `SET_NOTIFY` on the same fd, one with a non-zero `notify_uva` and one with zero \u2014 and `vmci_host_do_set_notify` is not serialized by `vmci_host_dev-\u003elock`, so the race can be looped indefinitely. Backing the UVA with a THP widens the window further, since `record_subpages()` in `gup_huge_pmd` publishes the page pointer into `context-\u003enotify_page` before the pin is validated.\nPR:L - There is no `capable()`, credential, or privilege check anywhere in `vmci_host_open()`, `vmci_ctx_create()`, or the SET_NOTIFY ioctl path \u2014 only the permissions on `/dev/vmci` gate access, and on VMware Workstation/Player hosts that node must be accessible to unprivileged users because the per-user VMX process opens it to create its VMCI context. A normal local user account is therefore sufficient.\nUI:N - Exploitation is entirely self-contained: the attacker opens `/dev/vmci`, issues `INIT_CONTEXT`, and races two `SET_NOTIFY` ioctls from its own threads. No victim action is required.\nS:U - The corruption occurs in host kernel memory and is exploited by a local host user, staying within the kernel\u0027s own security authority. Although VMCI is virtualization-related, this is the host-side personality driven by local ioctls, not a guest-to-host boundary crossing.\nC:H - `vmci_ctx_unset_notify()` calls `put_page()` on a pointer that `get_user_pages_fast()` published into `context-\u003enotify_page` before taking (or after rolling back) the reference, producing a refcount underflow that frees a page still mapped by userspace and still in use elsewhere. Once that page is recycled into kernel allocations while the attacker retains a user mapping, arbitrary kernel memory can be read.\nI:H - The same premature free gives the attacker a writable userspace mapping of a page the kernel later reallocates, a direct arbitrary-write primitive; additionally `context-\u003enotify` is left dangling into a released page and `ctx_signal_notify()` writes `true` through it at an attacker-chosen page offset when a datagram is queued. Both paths are readily leveraged for control-flow hijacking and privilege escalation.\nA:H - The race reliably trips `WARN_ON` in `try_grab_folio` (as reported by syzkaller) and, in the general case, causes page refcount underflow, double-free, and use-after-free of memory still in use, leading to kernel oops or panic. It can be triggered repeatedly by an unprivileged process."
