From: Zixuan Fu <r33s3n6@gmail.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.18-rc1 commit edf410cb74dc612fd47ef5be319c5a0bcd6e6ccd category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I7UWI8 CVE: CVE-2023-4459 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- In vmxnet3_rq_create(), when dma_alloc_coherent() fails, vmxnet3_rq_destroy() is called. It sets rq->rx_ring[i].base to NULL. Then vmxnet3_rq_create() returns an error to its callers mxnet3_rq_create_all() -> vmxnet3_change_mtu(). Then vmxnet3_change_mtu() calls vmxnet3_force_close() -> dev_close() in error handling code. And the driver calls vmxnet3_close() -> vmxnet3_quiesce_dev() -> vmxnet3_rq_cleanup_all() -> vmxnet3_rq_cleanup(). In vmxnet3_rq_cleanup(), rq->rx_ring[ring_idx].base is accessed, but this variable is NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference. To fix this possible bug, an if statement is added to check whether rq->rx_ring[0].base is NULL in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup() and exit early if so. The error log in our fault-injection testing is shown as follows: [ 65.220135] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008 ...
