Vulnerability CVE-2021-47140
Published: 2024-03-25
| Description: |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Clear DMA ops when switching domain
Since commit 08a27c1c3ecf ("iommu: Add support to change default domain
of an iommu group") a user can switch a device between IOMMU and direct
DMA through sysfs. This doesn't work for AMD IOMMU at the moment because
dev->dma_ops is not cleared when switching from a DMA to an identity
IOMMU domain. The DMA layer thus attempts to use the dma-iommu ops on an
identity domain, causing an oops:
# echo 0000:00:05.0 > /sys/sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/unbind
# echo identity > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:05.0/iommu_group/type
# echo 0000:00:05.0 > /sys/sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/bind
...
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028
...
Call Trace:
iommu_dma_alloc
e1000e_setup_tx_resources
e1000e_open
Since iommu_change_dev_def_domain() calls probe_finalize() again, clear
the dma_ops there like Vt-d does. |
