-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 ============================================================================= FreeBSD-SA-22:11.vm Security Advisory The FreeBSD Project Topic: Memory disclosure by stale virtual memory mapping Category: core Module: vm Announced: 2022-08-09 Credits: Mark Johnston Affects: All supported versions of FreeBSD. Corrected: 2022-08-09 19:47:40 UTC (stable/13, 13.1-STABLE) 2022-08-09 20:01:00 UTC (releng/13.1, 13.1-RELEASE-p1) 2022-08-09 19:59:49 UTC (releng/13.0, 13.0-RELEASE-p12) 2022-08-09 19:57:38 UTC (stable/12, 12.3-STABLE) 2022-08-09 19:59:48 UTC (releng/12.3, 12.3-RELEASE-p6) CVE Name: CVE-2022-23091 For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit . I. Background Memory mappings shared between processes are a feature of the FreeBSD virtual memory system. They may be established by unprivileged processes with the mmap(2), fork(2), and other system calls. II. Problem Description A particular case of memory sharing is mishandled in the virtual memory system. This is very similar to SA-21:08.vm, but with a different root cause. III. Impact An unprivileged local user process can maintain a mapping of a page after it is freed, allowing that process to read private data belonging to other processes or the kernel. IV. Workaround No workaround is available. V. Solution Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date, and reboot. Perform one of the following: 1) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch: Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the amd64, i386, or (on FreeBSD 13 and later) arm64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility: # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install # shutdown -r +10min "Rebooting for a security update" 2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch: The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable FreeBSD release branches. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-22:11/vm.patch # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-22:11/vm.patch.asc # gpg --verify vm.patch.asc b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch c) Recompile your kernel as described in and reboot the system. VI. Correction details This issue is corrected by the corresponding Git commit hash or Subversion revision number in the following stable and release branches: Branch/path Hash Revision - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- stable/13/ 3ea8c7ad90f7 stable/13-n252080 releng/13.1/ 0c88ecaa1255 releng/13.1-n250153 releng/13.0/ dd349089ff92 releng/13.0-n244805 stable/12/ r372377 releng/12.3/ r372381 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- For FreeBSD 13 and later: Run the following command to see which files were modified by a particular commit: # git show --stat Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the hash: To determine the commit count in a working tree (for comparison against nNNNNNN in the table above), run: # git rev-list --count --first-parent HEAD For FreeBSD 12 and earlier: Run the following command to see which files were modified by a particular revision, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number: # svn diff -cNNNNNN --summarize svn://svn.freebsd.org/base Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number: VII.
