From 6bfa04deb7d0eb08d50bb5a1534d8d8a5a7e4b27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cong Wang Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2025 09:36:42 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] net_sched: hfsc: Fix a UAF vulnerability in class handling stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.89 commit 3aa852e3605000d5c47035c3fc3a986d14ccfa9f category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IC5D95 CVE: CVE-2025-37797 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=3aa852e3605000d5c47035c3fc3a986d14ccfa9f -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 3df275ef0a6ae181e8428a6589ef5d5231e58b5c ] This patch fixes a Use-After-Free vulnerability in the HFSC qdisc class handling. The issue occurs due to a time-of-check/time-of-use condition in hfsc_change_class() when working with certain child qdiscs like netem or codel. The vulnerability works as follows: 1. hfsc_change_class() checks if a class has packets (q.qlen != 0) 2. It then calls qdisc_peek_len(), which for certain qdiscs (e.g., codel, netem) might drop packets and empty the queue 3. The code continues assuming the queue is still non-empty, adding the class to vttree 4. This breaks HFSC scheduler assumptions that only non-empty classes are in vttree 5. Later, when the class is destroyed, this can lead to a Use-After-Free The fix adds a second queue length check after qdisc_peek_len() to verify the queue wasn't emptied.
