CVE-2016-4794: security - Linux Kernel bpf related UAF

Use-after-free vulnerability in mm/percpu.c in the Linux kernel through 4.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted use of the mmap and bpf system calls.

Date: Thu, 12 May 2016 15:59:11 +0800 From: Marco Grassi <marco.gra@…il.com> To: oss-security@…ts.openwall.com Subject: Linux Kernel bpf related UAF

Hi,

the following reproducer will cause a UAF of a previously allocated memory in bpf.

You can reproduce with linux kernel master, or 4.6-rc6 4.6-rc7 and maybe other kernel versions.

In the reproducer there is also a log of the UAF with KASAN of the kernel running on qemu x64

Thanks

Marco

Reproducer C file:

// Linux kernel version: 4.6-rc7 or 4.6-rc6, or linux master (tested 2016/05/12) compiled with KASAN to see the log // Compile it with gcc -o durr durr.c // Run it and it will cause the UAF endlessly see qemu logs dmesg/logs // here there is a example log
