Subject: [PATCH] Don't crash if a connection closes early
c401cc
c401cc
CVE-2014-1447
c401cc
c401cc
When a client closes its connection to libvirtd early during
c401cc
virConnectOpen, more specifically just after making
c401cc
REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE call to check if
c401cc
VIR_DRV_FEATURE_PROGRAM_KEEPALIVE is supported without even waiting for
c401cc
the result, libvirtd may crash due to a race in keep-alive
c401cc
initialization. Once receiving the REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE
c401cc
call, the daemon's event loop delegates it to a worker thread. In case
c401cc
the event loop detects EOF on the connection and calls
c401cc
virNetServerClientClose before the worker thread starts to handle
c401cc
REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE call, client->keepalive will be
c401cc
disposed by the time virNetServerClientStartKeepAlive gets called from
c401cc
remoteDispatchConnectSupportsFeature. Because the flow is common for
c401cc
both authenticated and read-only connections, even unprivileged clients
c401cc
may cause the daemon to crash.
c401cc
c401cc
To avoid the crash, virNetServerClientStartKeepAlive needs to check if
c401cc
the connection is still open before starting keep-alive protocol.
c401cc
c401cc
Every libvirt release since 0.9.8 is affected by this bug.
