            Xen Security Advisory CVE-2022-33743 / XSA-405
                               version 3

       network backend may cause Linux netfront to use freed SKBs

UPDATES IN VERSION 3
====================

Public release.

ISSUE DESCRIPTION
=================

While adding logic to support XDP (eXpress Data Path), a code label was
moved in a way allowing for SKBs having references (pointers) retained
for further processing to nevertheless be freed.

IMPACT
======

A misbehaving or malicious backend may cause a Denial of Service (DoS)
in the guest.  Information leaks or privilege escalation cannot be
ruled out.

VULNERABLE SYSTEMS
==================

Linux versions 5.9 - 5.18 are vulnerable.  Linux versions 5.8 and
earlier are not vulnerable.

This vulnerability only increases the capability of an attacker in systems
with less than fully privileged network backends (e.g. network driver
domains).  For systems where netback runs in dom0 (the default
configuration), this vulnerability does not increase the capabilities of
an attacker.

MITIGATION
==========

There is no mitigation available other than not using PV devices in case
a backend is suspected to be potentially malicious.

CREDITS
=======

This issue was discovered by Jan Beulich of SUSE.
RESOLUTION
==========

Applying the appropriate attached patch resolves this issue.

Note that patches for released versions are generally prepared to
apply to the stable branches, and may not apply cleanly to the most
recent release tarball.  Downstreams are encouraged to update to the
tip of the stable branch before applying these patches.
