Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr()
Since commit 07ec77a1d4e8 ("sched: Allow task CPU affinity to be
restricted on asymmetric systems"), the setting and clearing of
user_cpus_ptr are done under pi_lock for arm64 architecture. However,
dup_user_cpus_ptr() accesses user_cpus_ptr without any lock
protection. Since sched_setaffinity() can be invoked from another
process, the process being modified may be undergoing fork() at
the same time. When racing with the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked(), it can lead to user-after-free and
possibly double-free in arm64 kernel.
Commit 8f9ea86fdf99 ("sched: Always preserve the user requested
cpumask") fixes this problem as user_cpus_ptr, once set, will never
be cleared in a task's lifetime. However, this bug was re-introduced
in commit 851a723e45d1 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") which allows the clearing of user_cpus_ptr in
do_set_cpus_allowed(). This time, it will affect all arches.
Fix this bug by always clearing the user_cpus_ptr of the newly
cloned/forked task before the copying process starts and check the
user_cpus_ptr state of the source task under pi_lock.
Note to stable, this patch won't be applicable to stable releases.
Just copy the new dup_user_cpus_ptr() function over.

"value": "En el kernel de Linux, se resolvi\u00f3 la siguiente vulnerabilidad: sched/core: corrige el error de use-after-free en dup_user_cpus_ptr() Desde el commit 07ec77a1d4e8 (\"sched: permitir que la afinidad de la CPU de la tarea se restrinja en sistemas asim\u00e9tricos\"), la configuraci\u00f3n y La limpieza de user_cpus_ptr se realiza en pi_lock para la arquitectura arm64. Sin embargo, dup_user_cpus_ptr() accede a user_cpus_ptr sin ninguna protecci\u00f3n de bloqueo. Dado que sched_setaffinity() puede invocarse desde otro proceso, el proceso que se est\u00e1 modificando puede estar pasando por fork() al mismo tiempo. Cuando se corre con la limpieza de user_cpus_ptr en __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked(), puede llevar a una liberaci\u00f3n posterior del usuario y posiblemente a una liberaci\u00f3n doble en el kernel arm64. El commit 8f9ea86fdf99 (\"programaci\u00f3n: conservar siempre la m\u00e1scara de CPU solicitada por el usuario\") soluciona este problema ya que user_cpus_ptr, una vez configurado, nunca se borrar\u00e1 durante la vida de una tarea. Sin embargo, este error se reintrodujo en el commit 851a723e45d1 (\"sched: borrar siempre user_cpus_ptr en do_set_cpus_allowed()\") que permite borrar user_cpus_ptr en do_set_cpus_allowed(). Esta vez afectar\u00e1 a todos los arcos. Corrija este error borrando siempre el user_cpus_ptr de la tarea reci\u00e9n clonada/bifurcada antes de que comience el proceso de copia y verifique el estado de user_cpus_ptr de la tarea fuente en pi_lock. Nota para las versiones estables: este parche no se aplicar\u00e1 a las versiones estables. Simplemente copie la nueva funci\u00f3n dup_user_cpus_ptr()."
