Terminate process on invalid netlink response from kernel [BZ #12926] The recvmsg system calls for netlink sockets have been particularly prone to picking up unrelated data after a file descriptor race (where the descriptor is closed and reopened concurrently in a multi-threaded process, as the result of a file descriptor management issue elsewhere). This commit adds additional error checking and aborts the process if a datagram of unexpected length (without the netlink header) is received, or an error code which cannot happen due to the way the netlink socket is used. 2015-10-23 Florian Weimer [BZ #12926] Terminate process on invalid netlink response. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlinkaccess.h (__netlink_assert_response): Declare. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlink_assert_response.c: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile [$(subdir) == inet] (sysdep_routines): Add netlink_assert_response. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c (__check_native): Call __netlink_assert_response. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c (make_request): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c (__netlink_request): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions (GLIBC_PRIVATE): Add __netlink_assert_response. diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile index 2c67a66..d6cc529 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile @@ -151,6 +151,7 @@ sysdep_headers += netinet/if_fddi.h netinet/if_tr.h \ netipx/ipx.h netash/ash.h netax25/ax25.h netatalk/at.h \ netrom/netrom.h netpacket/packet.h netrose/rose.h \ neteconet/ec.h netiucv/iucv.h +sysdep_routines += netlink_assert_response endif # Don't compile the ctype glue code, since there is no old non-GNU C library. diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions index 16bb281..202ffcc 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions @@ -169,5 +169,7 @@ libc { GLIBC_PRIVATE { # functions used in other libraries __syscall_rt_sigqueueinfo; + # functions used by nscd + __netlink_assert_response; } } diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c index eaefca1..d04c8f2 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ #include +#include "netlinkaccess.h" void __check_native (uint32_t a1_index, int *a1_native, @@ -117,6 +118,7 @@ __check_native (uint32_t a1_index, int *a1_native, }; ssize_t read_len = TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY (__recvmsg (fd, &msg, 0)); + __netlink_assert_response (fd, read_len); if (read_len < 0) goto out_fail; diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c index f072fb3..af4fdf8 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c @@ -36,6 +36,7 @@ #include #include +#include "netlinkaccess.h" #ifndef IFA_F_HOMEADDRESS # define IFA_F_HOMEADDRESS 0 @@ -164,7 +165,8 @@ make_request (int fd, pid_t pid) }; ssize_t read_len = TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY (__recvmsg (fd, &msg, 0)); - if (read_len <= 0) + __netlink_assert_response (fd, read_len); + if (read_len < 0) goto out_fail; if (msg.msg_flags & MSG_TRUNC) diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c index 64b4a1c..768a7ed 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c @@ -168,6 +168,7 @@ __netlink_request (struct netlink_handle *h, int type) }; read_len = TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY (__recvmsg (h->fd, &msg, 0)); + __netlink_assert_response (h->fd, read_len); if (read_len < 0) goto out_fail; diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlink_assert_response.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlink_assert_response.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000..41ed86e --- /dev/null +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlink_assert_response.c @@ -0,0 +1,100 @@ +/* Copyright (C) 2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + This file is part of the GNU C Library. + + The GNU C Library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or + modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public + License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either + version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. + + The GNU C Library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
