Subject: CVE-2024-45025: fix bitmap corruption on close_range() with CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fix bitmap corruption on close_range() with CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE
copy_fd_bitmaps(new, old, count) is expected to copy the first
count/BITS_PER_LONG bits from old->full_fds_bits[] and fill
the rest with zeroes. What it does is copying enough words
(BITS_TO_LONGS(count/BITS_PER_LONG)), then memsets the rest.
That works fine, *if* all bits past the cutoff point are
clear. Otherwise we are risking garbage from the last word
we'd copied.
For most of the callers that is true - expand_fdtable() has
count equal to old->max_fds, so there's no open descriptors
past count, let alone fully occupied words in ->open_fds[],
which is what bits in ->full_fds_bits[] correspond to.
The other caller (dup_fd()) passes sane_fdtable_size(old_fdt, max_fds),
which is the smallest multiple of BITS_PER_LONG that covers all
opened descriptors below max_fds. In the common case (copying on
fork()) max_fds is ~0U, so all opened descriptors will be below
it and we are fine, by the same reasons why the call in expand_fdtable()
is safe.
Unfortunately, there is a case where max_fds is less than that
and where we might, indeed, end up with junk in ->full_fds_bits[] -
close_range(from, to, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE) with
* descriptor table being currently shared
* 'to' being above the current capacity of descriptor table
* 'from' being just under some chunk of opened descriptors.
In that case we end up with observably wrong behaviour - e.g. spawn
a child with CLONE_FILES, get all descriptors in range 0..127 open,
then close_range(64, ~0U, CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE) and watch dup(0) ending
up with descriptor #128, despite #64 being observably not open.
The minimally invasive fix would be to deal with that in dup_fd().
If this proves to add measurable overhead, we can go that way, but
let's try to fix copy_fd_bitmaps() first.
* new helper: bitmap_copy_and_expand(to, from, bits_to_copy, size).
* make copy_fd_bitmaps() take the bitmap size in words, rather than
bits; it's 'count' argument is always a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG,
so we are not losing any information, and that way we can use the
same helper for all three bitmaps - compiler will see that count
is a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG for the large ones, so it'll generate
plain memcpy()+memset().

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
