CVE-2023-53525

CVE-2023-53525 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cma: Allow UD qp_type to join multicast only As for multicast: - The SIDR is the only mode that makes sense; - Besides PS_UDP, other port spaces like PS_IB is also allowed, as it is UD compatible. In this case qkey also needs to be set [1]. This patch allows only UD qp_type to join multicast, and set qkey to default if it's not set, to fix an uninit-value error: the ib->rec.qkey field is accessed without being initialized. ===================================================== BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in cma_set_qkey drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:510 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in cma_make_mc_event+0xb73/0xe00 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4570 cma_set_qkey drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:510 [inline] cma_make_mc_event+0xb73/0xe00 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4570 cma_iboe_join_multicast drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4782 [inline] rdma_join_multicast+0x2b83/0x30a0 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4814 ucma_process_join+0xa76/0xf60 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1479 ucma_join_multicast+0x1e3/0x250 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1546 ucma_write+0x639/0x6d0 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1732 vfs_write+0x8ce/0x2030 fs/read_write.c:588 ksys_write+0x28c/0x520 fs/read_write.c:643 __do_sys_write fs/read_write.c:655 [inline] __se_sys_write fs/read_write.c:652 [inline] __ia32_sys_write+0xdb/0x120 fs/read_write.c:652 do_syscall_32_irqs_on arch/x86/entry/common.c:114 [inline] __do_fast_syscall_32+0x96/0xf0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:180 do_fast_syscall_32+0x34/0x70 arch/x86/entry/common.c:205 do_SYSENTER_32+0x1b/0x20 arch/x86/entry/common.c:248 entry_SYSENTER_compat_after_hwframe+0x4d/0x5c Local variable ib.i created at: cma_iboe_join_multicast drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4737 [inline] rdma_join_multicast+0x586/0x30a0 drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c:4814 ucma_process_join+0xa76/0xf60 drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:1479 CPU: 0 PID: 29874 Comm: syz-executor.3 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc3-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 ===================================================== [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/20220117183832.GD84788@nvidia.com/.
