How to fix?

Upgrade RHEL:8 kernel to version 0:4.18.0-372.129.1.el8_6 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2024:9500.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel package and not the kernel package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: fix use-after-free bug

The bug can be triggered by sending a single amdgpu_gem_userptr_ioctl to the AMDGPU DRM driver on any ASICs with an invalid address and size. The bug was reported by Joonkyo Jung <joonkyoj@yonsei.ac.kr>. For example the following code:

static void Syzkaller1(int fd) { struct drm_amdgpu_gem_userptr arg; int ret;

arg.addr = 0xffffffffffff0000;
arg.size = 0x80000000; /*2 Gb*/
arg.flags = 0x7;
ret = drmIoctl(fd, 0xc1186451/*amdgpu_gem_userptr_ioctl*/, &amp;arg);

}

Due to the address and size are not valid there is a failure in amdgpu_hmm_register->mmu_interval_notifier_insert->__mmu_interval_notifier_insert-> check_shl_overflow, but we even the amdgpu_hmm_register failure we still call amdgpu_hmm_unregister into amdgpu_gem_object_free which causes access to a bad address. The following stack is below when the issue is reproduced when Kazan is enabled:
