Este es el caso, por ejemplo, de algunas configuraciones arm64, donde marcar 4k PTE en el mapa directo como no presentes solo se puede hacer si el mapa directo se configura con una granularidad de 4k en primer lugar (ya que la sem\u00e1ntica break-before-make de ARM no permite dividir f\u00e1cilmente p\u00e1ginas grandes/gigantescas). M\u00e1s precisamente, en sistemas arm64 con !can_set_direct_map(), set_direct_map_invalid_noflush() es una operaci\u00f3n sin efecto, sin embargo, devuelve \u00e9xito (0) en lugar de un error. Esto significa que memfd_secret aparentemente \"funcionar\u00e1\" (por ejemplo, la llamada al sistema tiene \u00e9xito, puede mmap el fd y el error en las p\u00e1ginas), pero en realidad no logra su objetivo de eliminar su memoria del mapa directo. Tenga en cuenta que con este parche, memfd_secret() comenzar\u00e1 a generar errores en sistemas donde can_set_direct_map() devuelve falso (arm64 con CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=n, CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=n y CONFIG_KFENCE=n), pero eso parece mejor que el error silencioso actual. Dado que CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED tiene como valor predeterminado 'y', la mayor\u00eda de los sistemas arm64 tienen en realidad un memfd_secret() en funcionamiento y no se ven afectados. Al revisar las iteraciones de la serie de parches memfd_secret originales, parece que deshabilitar la llamada al sistema en estos escenarios era el comportamiento previsto [1] (preferible a que set_direct_map_invalid_noflush devuelva un error ya que eso generar\u00eda SIGBUS en el momento de la falla de la p\u00e1gina); sin embargo, la verificaci\u00f3n se abandon\u00f3 entre v16 [2] y v17 [3], cuando secretmem se alej\u00f3 de las asignaciones de CMA.

This\nis the case for example on some arm64 configurations, where marking 4k\nPTEs in the direct map not present can only be done if the direct map is\nset up at 4k granularity in the first place (as ARM's break-before-make\nsemantics do not easily allow breaking apart large/gigantic pages).\nMore precisely, on arm64 systems with !can_set_direct_map(),\nset_direct_map_invalid_noflush() is a no-op, however it returns success\n(0) instead of an error. This means that memfd_secret will seemingly\n\"work\" (e.g. syscall succeeds, you can mmap the fd and fault in pages),\nbut it does not actually achieve its goal of removing its memory from the\ndirect map.\nNote that with this patch, memfd_secret() will start erroring on systems\nwhere can_set_direct_map() returns false (arm64 with\nCONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=n, CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=n and\nCONFIG_KFENCE=n), but that still seems better than the current silent\nfailure. Since CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED defaults to 'y', most\narm64 systems actually have a working memfd_secret() and aren't be\naffected.\nFrom going through the iterations of the original memfd_secret patch\nseries, it seems that disabling the syscall in these scenarios was the\nintended behavior [1] (preferred over having\nset_direct_map_invalid_noflush return an error as that would result in\nSIGBUSes at page-fault time), however the check for it got dropped between\nv16 [2] and v17 [3], when secretmem moved away from CMA allocations.\n[1]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/\n[2]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/#t\n[3]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/"], "name": "CVE-2024-50182", "package_state": [{"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:6", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "kernel", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "kernel", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:7", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "kernel-rt", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:8", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "kernel", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:8", "fix_state": "Not affected", "package_name": "kernel-rt", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8"}, {"cpe": "cpe:/o:redhat:enterprise_linux:9", "fix_state": "Will not fix", "package_name": "kernel-rt", "product_name": "Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9"}], "public_date": "2024-11-08T00:00:00Z", "references": ["https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-50182\nhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-50182\nhttps://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2024110833-CVE-2024-50182-0fe4@gregkh/T"], "threat_severity": "Moderate"}
