The above issue may happen as follows:

(2) insmod test.ko;
(3)  Module triggers ftrace disabled;
(4) rmmod test.ko;
(5) cat /proc/kallsyms; --> Will trigger UAF as test.ko already removed;
ftrace_mod_get_kallsym()
...
strscpy(module_name, mod_map->mod->name, MODULE_NAME_LEN);
...

The problem is when a module triggers an issue with ftrace and
sets ftrace_disable. The ftrace_disable is set when an anomaly is
discovered and to prevent any more damage, ftrace stops all text
modification. The issue that happened was that the ftrace_disable stops
more than just the text modification.

When a module is loaded, its init functions can also be traced. Because
kallsyms deletes the init functions after a module has loaded, ftrace
saves them when the module is loaded and function tracing is enabled. This
allows the output of the function trace to show the init function names
instead of just their raw memory addresses.

When a module is removed, ftrace_release_mod() is called, and if
ftrace_disable is set, it just returns without doing anything more. The
problem here is that it leaves the mod_list still around and if kallsyms
is called, it will call into this code and access the module memory that
has already been freed as it will return:

  strscpy(module_name, mod_map->mod->name, MODULE_NAME_LEN);

Where the "mod" no longer exists and triggers a UAF bug.

When the kernel contains a large number of functions that can be traced, the loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() may take a lot of time to execute. This may trigger the softlockup watchdog. Add cond_resched() within the loop to allow the kernel to remain responsive even when processing a large number of functions. This matches the cond_resched() that is used in other locations of the code that iterates over all functions that can be traced.

ftrace: use preempt_enable/disable notrace macros to avoid double fault 2025-01-09T12:23:37+00:00 Koichiro Den koichiro.den@canonical.com 2025-01-08T03:17:36+00:00 177516053eae383c3db7104e43e03f73e85e5a7a Since the backport commit eea46baf1451 ("ftrace: Fix possible use-after-free issue in ftrace_location()") on linux-5.4.y branch, the old ftrace_int3_handler()->ftrace_location() path has included rcu_read_lock(), which has mcount location inside and leads to potential double fault. Replace rcu_read_lock/unlock with preempt_enable/disable notrace macros so that the mcount location does not appear on the int3 handler path. This fix is specific to linux-5.4.y branch, the only branch still using ftrace_int3_handler with commit e60b613df8b6 ("ftrace: Fix possible use-after-free issue in ftrace_location()") backported.

The root cause is that, in lookup_rec(), ftrace record of some address
is being searched in ftrace pages of some module, but those ftrace pages
at the same time is being freed in ftrace_release_mod() as the
corresponding module is being deleted:

           CPU1                       |      CPU2
  register_kprobes() {                | delete_module() {

        ftrace_location() {           |
          lookup_rec() // USE!        |   ftrace_release_mod() // Free!

To fix this issue:
  1. Hold rcu lock as accessing ftrace pages in ftrace_location_range();
  2. Use ftrace_location_range() instead of lookup_rec() in
     ftrace_location();
  3. Call synchronize_rcu() before freeing any ftrace pages both in
     ftrace_process_locs()/ftrace_release_mod()/ftrace_free_mem().

[ Upstream commit 26efd79c4624294e553aeaa3439c646729bad084 ]

As comments in ftrace_process_locs(), there may be NULL pointers in
mcount_loc section:
 > Some architecture linkers will pad between
 > the different mcount_loc sections of different
 > object files to satisfy alignments.
 > Skip any NULL pointers.

After commit 20e5227e9f55 ("ftrace: allow NULL pointers in mcount_loc"),
NULL pointers will be accounted when allocating ftrace pages but skipped
before adding into ftrace pages, this may result in some pages not being
used. Then after commit 706c81f87f84 ("ftrace: Remove extra helper
functions"), warning may occur at:
  WARN_ON(pg->next);

To fix it, only warn for case that no pointers skipped but pages not used
up, then free those unused pages after releasing ftrace_lock.
