CVE-2023-53855

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: ocelot: call dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() under rtnl_lock() on driver remove When the tagging protocol in current use is "ocelot-8021q" and we unbind the driver, we see this splat: $ echo '0000:00:00.2' > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/fsl_enetc/unbind mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5 swp0: left promiscuous mode sja1105 spi2.0: Link is Down DSA: tree 1 torn down mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5 swp2: left promiscuous mode sja1105 spi2.2: Link is Down DSA: tree 3 torn down fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: left promiscuous mode mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5: Link is Down ------------[ cut here ]------------ RTNL: assertion failed at net/dsa/tag_8021q.c (409) WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 329 at net/dsa/tag_8021q.c:409 dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x12c/0x1a0 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 329 Comm: bash Not tainted 6.5.0-rc3+ #771 pc : dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x12c/0x1a0 lr : dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x12c/0x1a0 Call trace: dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x12c/0x1a0 felix_tag_8021q_teardown+0x130/0x150 felix_teardown+0x3c/0xd8 dsa_tree_teardown_switches+0xbc/0xe0 dsa_unregister_switch+0x168/0x260 felix_pci_remove+0x30/0x60 pci_device_remove+0x4c/0x100 device_release_driver_internal+0x188/0x288 device_links_unbind_consumers+0xfc/0x138 device_release_driver_internal+0xe0/0x288 device_driver_detach+0x24/0x38 unbind_store+0xd8/0x108 drv_attr_store+0x30/0x50 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- ------------[ cut here ]------------ RTNL: assertion failed at net/8021q/vlan_core.c (376) WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 329 at net/8021q/vlan_core.c:376 vlan_vid_del+0x1b8/0x1f0 CPU: 1 PID: 329 Comm: bash Tainted: G W 6.5.0-rc3+ #771 pc : vlan_vid_del+0x1b8/0x1f0 lr : vlan_vid_del+0x1b8/0x1f0 dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x8c/0x1a0 felix_tag_8021q_teardown+0x130/0x150 felix_teardown+0x3c/0xd8 dsa_tree_teardown_switches+0xbc/0xe0 dsa_unregister_switch+0x168/0x260 felix_pci_remove+0x30/0x60 pci_device_remove+0x4c/0x100 device_release_driver_internal+0x188/0x288 device_links_unbind_consumers+0xfc/0x138 device_release_driver_internal+0xe0/0x288 device_driver_detach+0x24/0x38 unbind_store+0xd8/0x108 drv_attr_store+0x30/0x50 DSA: tree 0 torn down This was somewhat not so easy to spot, because "ocelot-8021q" is not the default tagging protocol, and thus, not everyone who tests the unbinding path may have switched to it beforehand. The default felix_tag_npi_teardown() does not require rtnl_lock() to be held.
