Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: IB/iser: reject a remote invalidation of an unregistered direction A write command whose data is sent entirely as immediate data is not registered. iser_reg_mem_fastreg() takes the DMA key path and leaves rdma_reg[ISER_DIR_OUT].desc at NULL, while iser_dma_map_task_data() has already set dir[ISER_DIR_OUT]. iser_check_remote_inv() looks at dir[] alone and hands the descriptor to iser_inv_desc(), which reads desc->sig_protected. A target that answers such a command with IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV faults the initiator. Leaving those commands unregistered is deliberate. The same function already terminates the connection when a target sends a remote invalidation the initiator did not ask for. A target that invalidates a direction that was never registered is in the same class, so give it the same answer. Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000004: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000020-0x0000000000000027] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 40 Comm: kworker/u8:2 Not tainted 7.2.0-rc5-ISERHOST-gf5098b6bae76-dirty #3 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 Workqueue: rxe_wq do_work RIP: 0010:iser_task_rsp+0x6d6/0xec0 Code: 48 c1 ea 03 80 3c 02 00 0f 85 ba 06 00 00 48 8b 9b 78 01 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 8d 7b 20 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 <0f> b6 04 02 84 c0 74 06 0f 8e 76 06 00 00 80 7b 20 00 0f 84 3d 04 RSP: 0018:ffff88811b008db8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000001848 RDX: 0000000000000004 RSI: 1ffff11021587b12 RDI: 0000000000000020 RBP: ffff88810adc1ae4 R08: ffff888109b7f860 R09: ffffffff90a922c0 R10: ffff88810adc1a1c R11: 000000000000003c R12: ffff888109b7f800 R13: ffff88810adc1acc R14: ffff888109b7f820 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88818a676000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00000000005afe2b CR3: 000000010af23005 CR4: 0000000000770ef0 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <IRQ> __ib_process_cq+0xe1/0x390 ib_poll_handler+0x6e/0x200 irq_poll_softirq+0x1df/0x480 ? clockevents_program_event+0x2ba/0x860 ? __pfx_irq_poll_softirq+0x10/0x10 handle_softirqs+0x18e/0x590 ? __pfx_handle_softirqs+0x10/0x10 ? __hrtimer_rearm_deferred+0x156/0x450 do_softirq+0x3b/0x60 </IRQ> <TASK> __local_bh_enable_ip+0x61/0x70 __alloc_skb+0x732/0x890 ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x85/0xe0 ? __pfx___alloc_skb+0x10/0x10 ? _raw_read_unlock_irqrestore+0x16/0x50 rxe_init_packet+0x16b/0x4f0 prepare_ack_packet+0xb8/0x830 rxe_receiver+0x499/0x9980 ? __pfx_rxe_receiver+0x10/0x10 ? rxe_completer+0x29e5/0x38c0 ? hrtimer_start_range_ns_common+0x75f/0x1730 ? hrtimer_start_range_ns+0xa6/0x2c0 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_rxe_receiver+0x10/0x10 do_work+0x144/0x470 process_one_work+0x633/0x1030 ? assign_work+0x11d/0x370 worker_thread+0x45b/0xd10 ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10 kthread+0x2c6/0x3b0 ? recalc_sigpending+0x15c/0x1e0 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0 ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10 ? __switch_to+0x572/0xdd0 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 </TASK> Modules linked in: ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

          "value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nIB/iser: reject a remote invalidation of an unregistered direction\n\nA write command whose data is sent entirely as immediate data is not\nregistered.  iser_reg_mem_fastreg() takes the DMA key path and leaves\nrdma_reg[ISER_DIR_OUT].desc at NULL, while iser_dma_map_task_data() has\nalready set dir[ISER_DIR_OUT].\n\niser_check_remote_inv() looks at dir[] alone and hands the descriptor to\niser_inv_desc(), which reads desc-\u003esig_protected.  A target that answers\nsuch a command with IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV faults the initiator.\nLeaving those commands unregistered is deliberate.\n\nThe same function already terminates the connection when a target sends\na remote invalidation the initiator did not ask for.  A target that\ninvalidates a direction that was never registered is in the same class,\nso give it the same answer.\n\n  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000004: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI\n  KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000020-0x0000000000000027]\n  CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 40 Comm: kworker/u8:2 Not tainted 7.2.0-rc5-ISERHOST-gf5098b6bae76-dirty #3 PREEMPT(lazy)\n  Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014\n  Workqueue: rxe_wq do_work\n  RIP: 0010:iser_task_rsp+0x6d6/0xec0\n  Code: 48 c1 ea 03 80 3c 02 00 0f 85 ba 06 00 00 48 8b 9b 78 01 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 8d 7b 20 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 \u003c0f\u003e b6 04 02 84 c0 74 06 0f 8e 76 06 00 00 80 7b 20 00 0f 84 3d 04\n  RSP: 0018:ffff88811b008db8 EFLAGS: 00010202\n  RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000001848\n  RDX: 0000000000000004 RSI: 1ffff11021587b12 RDI: 0000000000000020\n  RBP: ffff88810adc1ae4 R08: ffff888109b7f860 R09: ffffffff90a922c0\n  R10: ffff88810adc1a1c R11: 000000000000003c R12: ffff888109b7f800\n  R13: ffff88810adc1acc R14: ffff888109b7f820 R15: 0000000000000000\n  FS:  0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88818a676000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000\n  CS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033\n  CR2: 00000000005afe2b CR3: 000000010af23005 CR4: 0000000000770ef0\n  PKRU: 55555554\n  Call Trace:\n   \u003cIRQ\u003e\n   __ib_process_cq+0xe1/0x390\n   ib_poll_handler+0x6e/0x200\n   irq_poll_softirq+0x1df/0x480\n   ? clockevents_program_event+0x2ba/0x860\n   ? __pfx_irq_poll_softirq+0x10/0x10\n   handle_softirqs+0x18e/0x590\n   ? __pfx_handle_softirqs+0x10/0x10\n   ? __hrtimer_rearm_deferred+0x156/0x450\n   do_softirq+0x3b/0x60\n   \u003c/IRQ\u003e\n   \u003cTASK\u003e\n   __local_bh_enable_ip+0x61/0x70\n   __alloc_skb+0x732/0x890\n   ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x85/0xe0\n   ? __pfx___alloc_skb+0x10/0x10\n   ? _raw_read_unlock_irqrestore+0x16/0x50\n   rxe_init_packet+0x16b/0x4f0\n   prepare_ack_packet+0xb8/0x830\n   rxe_receiver+0x499/0x9980\n   ? __pfx_rxe_receiver+0x10/0x10\n   ? rxe_completer+0x29e5/0x38c0\n   ? hrtimer_start_range_ns_common+0x75f/0x1730\n   ? hrtimer_start_range_ns+0xa6/0x2c0\n   ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10\n   ? __pfx_rxe_receiver+0x10/0x10\n   do_work+0x144/0x470\n   process_one_work+0x633/0x1030\n   ? assign_work+0x11d/0x370\n   worker_thread+0x45b/0xd10\n   ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n   kthread+0x2c6/0x3b0\n   ? recalc_sigpending+0x15c/0x1e0\n   ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n   ret_from_fork+0x36e/0x5a0\n   ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10\n   ? __switch_to+0x572/0xdd0\n   ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n   ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n   \u003c/TASK\u003e\n  Modules linked in:\n  ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---"
