CVE-2024-49926
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rcu-tasks: Fix access non-existent percpu rtpcp variable in rcu_tasks_need_gpcb() For kernels built with CONFIG_FORCE_NR_CPUS=y, the nr_cpu_ids is defined as NR_CPUS instead of the number of possible cpus, this will cause the following system panic: smpboot: Allowing 4 CPUs, 0 hotplug CPUs ... setup_percpu: NR_CPUS:512 nr_cpumask_bits:512 nr_cpu_ids:512 nr_node_ids:1 ... BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff9911c8c8 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 0 PID: 15 Comm: rcu_tasks_trace Tainted: G W 6.6.21 #1 5dc7acf91a5e8e9ac9dcfc35bee0245691283ea6 RIP: 0010:rcu_tasks_need_gpcb+0x25d/0x2c0 RSP: 0018:ffffa371c00a3e60 EFLAGS: 00010082 CR2: ffffffff9911c8c8 CR3: 000000040fa20005 CR4: 00000000001706f0 Call Trace: <TASK> ? __die+0x23/0x80 ? page_fault_oops+0xa4/0x180 ? exc_page_fault+0x152/0x180 ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x26/0x40 ? rcu_tasks_need_gpcb+0x25d/0x2c0 ? __pfx_rcu_tasks_kthread+0x40/0x40 rcu_tasks_one_gp+0x69/0x180 rcu_tasks_kthread+0x94/0xc0 kthread+0xe8/0x140 ? __pfx_kthread+0x40/0x40 ret_from_fork+0x34/0x80 ? __pfx_kthread+0x40/0x40 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1b/0x80 </TASK> Considering that there may be holes in the CPU numbers, use the maximum possible cpu number, instead of nr_cpu_ids, for configuring enqueue and dequeue limits.
