CVE-2024-27410

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: nl80211: reject iftype change with mesh ID change It's currently possible to change the mesh ID when the interface isn't yet in mesh mode, at the same time as changing it into mesh mode. This leads to an overwrite of data in the wdev->u union for the interface type it currently has, causing cfg80211_change_iface() to do wrong things when switching. We could probably allow setting an interface to mesh while setting the mesh ID at the same time by doing a different order of operations here, but realistically there's no userspace that's going to do this, so just disallow changes in iftype when setting mesh ID.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: wifi: nl80211: rechazar cambio de tipo con cambio de ID de malla Actualmente es posible cambiar el ID de malla cuando la interfaz aún no está en modo malla, al mismo tiempo que se cambia a modo malla. Esto lleva a una sobrescritura de datos en la unión wdev->u para el tipo de interfaz que tiene actualmente, causando que cfg80211_change_iface() haga cosas incorrectas al cambiar. Probablemente podríamos permitir configurar una interfaz para malla mientras configuramos la ID de malla al mismo tiempo haciendo un orden diferente de operaciones aquí, pero en realidad no hay ningún espacio de usuario que vaya a hacer esto, así que simplemente no permita cambios en iftype al configurar la ID de malla.
