CVE-2023-53102CVE-2023-53102
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: xsk: disable txq irq before flushing hw
ice_qp_dis() intends to stop a given queue pair that is a target of xsk
pool attach/detach. One of the steps is to disable interrupts on these
queues. It currently is broken in a way that txq irq is turned off
*after* HW flush which in turn takes no effect.
ice_qp_dis():
-> ice_qvec_dis_irq()
--> disable rxq irq
--> flush hw
-> ice_vsi_stop_tx_ring()
-->disable txq irq
Below splat can be triggered by following steps:
- start xdpsock WITHOUT loading xdp prog
- run xdp_rxq_info with XDP_TX action on this interface
- start traffic
- terminate xdpsock
