CVE-2022-48719
Disclosure Date: June 20, 2024 (last updated September 19, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net, neigh: Do not trigger immediate probes on NUD_FAILED from neigh_managed_work
syzkaller was able to trigger a deadlock for NTF_MANAGED entries [0]:
kworker/0:16/14617 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff8d4dd370 (&tbl->lock){++-.}-{2:2}, at: ___neigh_create+0x9e1/0x2990 net/core/neighbour.c:652
[...]
but task is already holding lock:
ffffffff8d4dd370 (&tbl->lock){++-.}-{2:2}, at: neigh_managed_work+0x35/0x250 net/core/neighbour.c:1572
The neighbor entry turned to NUD_FAILED state, where __neigh_event_send()
triggered an immediate probe as per commit cd28ca0a3dd1 ("neigh: reduce
arp latency") via neigh_probe() given table lock was held.
One option to fix this situation is to defer the neigh_probe() back to
the neigh_timer_handler() similarly as pre cd28ca0a3dd1. For the case
of NTF_MANAGED, this deferral is acceptable given this only happens on
actual failure state and regular / expected state is NUD_…
