Subject: CVE-2024-49885: mm, slub: avoid zeroing kmalloc redzone

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email-masked]>

Description
===========

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

mm, slub: avoid zeroing kmalloc redzone

Since commit 946fa0dbf2d8 ("mm/slub: extend redzone check to extra
allocated kmalloc space than requested"), setting orig_size treats
the wasted space (object_size - orig_size) as a redzone. However with
init_on_free=1 we clear the full object->size, including the redzone.

Additionally we clear the object metadata, including the stored orig_size,
making it zero, which makes check_object() treat the whole object as a
redzone.

These issues lead to the following BUG report with "slub_debug=FUZ
init_on_free=1":

To address the issue, use orig_size to clear the used area. And restore
the value of orig_size after clear the remaining area.

When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG not defined, (get_orig_size()' directly returns
s->object_size. So when using memset to init the area, the size can simply
be orig_size, as orig_size returns object_size when CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG not
enabled. And orig_size can never be bigger than object_size.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-49885 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
