Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply() This patch fixes an out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply() that can be triggered by a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY. In ceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a message is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than INT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative value. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and subsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that the memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation. This patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len to u32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32, as it is also a variable holding a non-negative length. Also, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring that directly after reading it from the message, payload_len and result_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.

      "value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nlibceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()\n\nThis patch fixes an out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()\nthat can be triggered by a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY. In\nceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a\nmessage is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than\nINT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative\nvalue. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and\nsubsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that\nthe memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation.\n\nThis patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len to\nu32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32,\nas it is also a variable holding a non-negative length.\n\nAlso, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring that\ndirectly after reading it from the message, payload_len and\nresult_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\nRead of size 4 at addr ffff88811404df14 by task kworker/20:1/262\n\nCPU: 20 UID: 0 PID: 262 Comm: kworker/20:1 Not tainted 6.19.2 #5 PREEMPT(voluntary)\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014\nWorkqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x76/0xa0\n print_report+0xd1/0x620\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_complete_mode_report_info+0x72/0x210\n kasan_report+0xe7/0x130\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n __asan_report_load_n_noabort+0xf/0x20\n ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n mon_dispatch+0x973/0x23d0 [libceph]\n ? apparmor_socket_recvmsg+0x6b/0xa0\n ? __pfx_mon_dispatch+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30i\n ? mutex_unlock+0x7f/0xd0\n ? __pfx_mutex_unlock+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_do_recvmsg+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ceph_con_process_message+0x1f1/0x650 [libceph]\n process_message+0x1e/0x450 [libceph]\n ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x2e48/0x6c80 [libceph]\n ? __pfx_ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? save_fpregs_to_fpstate+0xb0/0x230\n ? raw_spin_rq_unlock+0x17/0xa0\n ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x13b/0x760\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? mutex_lock+0x8d/0xe0\n ? __pfx_mutex_lock+0x10/0x10\n ceph_con_workfn+0x248/0x10c0 [libceph]\n process_one_work+0x629/0xf80\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n worker_thread+0x87f/0x1570\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_try_to_wake_up+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_print_address_stack_frame+0x1f7/0x280\n ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n kthread+0x396/0x830\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irq+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? recalc_sigpending+0x180/0x210\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork+0x3f7/0x610\n ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\n[ idryomov: replace if statements with ceph_decode_need() for\n  payload_len and result_msg_len ]"

In\nceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a\nmessage is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than\nINT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative\nvalue. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and\nsubsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that\nthe memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation.\n\nThis patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len to\nu32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32,\nas it is also a variable holding a non-negative length.\n\nAlso, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring that\ndirectly after reading it from the message, payload_len and\nresult_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\nRead of size 4 at addr ffff88811404df14 by task kworker/20:1/262\n\nCPU: 20 UID: 0 PID: 262 Comm: kworker/20:1 Not tainted 6.19.2 #5 PREEMPT(voluntary)\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014\nWorkqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x76/0xa0\n print_report+0xd1/0x620\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_complete_mode_report_info+0x72/0x210\n kasan_report+0xe7/0x130\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n __asan_report_load_n_noabort+0xf/0x20\n ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]\n mon_dispatch+0x973/0x23d0 [libceph]\n ? apparmor_socket_recvmsg+0x6b/0xa0\n ? __pfx_mon_dispatch+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30i\n ? mutex_unlock+0x7f/0xd0\n ? __pfx_mutex_unlock+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_do_recvmsg+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ceph_con_process_message+0x1f1/0x650 [libceph]\n process_message+0x1e/0x450 [libceph]\n ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x2e48/0x6c80 [libceph]\n ? __pfx_ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x10/0x10 [libceph]\n ? save_fpregs_to_fpstate+0xb0/0x230\n ? raw_spin_rq_unlock+0x17/0xa0\n ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x13b/0x760\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? mutex_lock+0x8d/0xe0\n ? __pfx_mutex_lock+0x10/0x10\n ceph_con_workfn+0x248/0x10c0 [libceph]\n process_one_work+0x629/0xf80\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n worker_thread+0x87f/0x1570\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_try_to_wake_up+0x10/0x10\n ? kasan_print_address_stack_frame+0x1f7/0x280\n ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n kthread+0x396/0x830\n ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irq+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30\n ? recalc_sigpending+0x180/0x210\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork+0x3f7/0x610\n ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10\n ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\n[ idryomov: replace if statements with ceph_decode_need() for\n  payload_len and result_msg_len ]"

A malicious or compromised monitor, or an attacker in position to impersonate one, can supply the crafted network message remotely.\nAC:L - The trigger is a deterministic malformed length field in a single auth reply, with no race or unusual heap state required to reach the out-of-bounds read. The attacker controls the relevant message contents.\nPR:N - The vulnerable reply is processed by the kernel client from the network peer during monitor/auth session handling, before any attacker-controlled credentials are required on the target. No local account or target privileges are needed.\nUI:N - Once a Ceph client connects or reconnects to the monitor peer, the attacker can send the crafted reply without further victim action. This is server-to-client network input processing.\nS:U - The impact is within the Linux kernel/client security authority. It does not cross a hypervisor, IOMMU, or separate authorization scope boundary.\nC:H - The signed length overflow lets the attacker move the decode pointer before the message buffer and perform an out-of-bounds kernel memory read at an attacker-influenced offset. Although the immediate read is small, it is not confined to a fixed in-object field, so high confidentiality impact is the safer defensible choice.\nI:N - The bug is an out-of-bounds read caused by pointer underflow; the investigated path does not provide an out-of-bounds write or direct memory corruption primitive. The downstream auth handlers reject the inverted buffer range or ignore the payload.\nA:H - The commit includes a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds report in `ceph_handle_auth_reply()`, and attacker-controlled pointer underflow can fault or oops the kernel worker processing the connection. A malicious peer can repeat the malformed reply to disrupt affected clients."
