CVE-2022-50583

What is known

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid0, raid10: Don't set discard sectors for request queue It should use disk_stack_limits to get a proper max_discard_sectors rather than setting a value by stack drivers. And there is a bug. If all member disks are rotational devices, raid0/raid10 set max_discard_sectors. So the member devices are not ssd/nvme, but raid0/raid10 export the wrong value. It reports warning messages in function __blkdev_issue_discard when mkfs.xfs like this: [ 4616.022599] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 4616.027779] WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 99634 at block/blk-lib.c:50 __blkdev_issue_discard+0x16a/0x1a0 [ 4616.140663] RIP: 0010:__blkdev_issue_discard+0x16a/0x1a0 [ 4616.146601] Code: 24 4c 89 20 31 c0 e9 fe fe ff ff c1 e8 09 8d 48 ff 4c 89 f0 4c 09 e8 48 85 c1 0f 84 55 ff ff ff b8 ea ff ff ff e9 df fe ff ff <0f> 0b 48 8d 74 24 08 e8 ea d6 00 00 48 c7 c6 20 1e 89 ab 48 c7 c7 [ 4616.167567] RSP: 0018:ffffaab88cbffca8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 4616.173406] RAX: ffff9ba1f9e44678 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.181376] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.189345] RBP: 0000000000000cc0 R08: ffffaab88cbffd10 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 4616.197317] R10: 0000000000000012 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 4616.205288] R13: 0000000000400000 R14: 0000000000000cc0 R15: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.213259] FS: 00007f9a5534e980(0000) GS:ffff9ba1b7c80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 4616.222298] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 4616.228719] CR2: 000055a390a4c518 CR3: 0000000123e40006 CR4: 00000000001706e0 [ 4616.236689] Call Trace: [ 4616.239428] blkdev_issue_discard+0x52/0xb0 [ 4616.244108] blkdev_common_ioctl+0x43c/0xa00 [ 4616.248883] blkdev_ioctl+0x116/0x280 [ 4616.252977] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x8a/0xc0 [ 4616.257163] do_syscall_64+0x5c/0x90 [ 4616.261164] ? handle_mm_fault+0xc5/0x2a0 [ 4616.265652] ? do_user_addr_fault+0x1d8/0x690 [ 4616.270527] ? do_syscall_64+0x69/0x90 [ 4616.274717] ? exc_page_fault+0x62/0x150 [ 4616.279097] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd [ 4616.284748] RIP: 0033:0x7f9a55398c6b

Business impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2022-50583, a reported vulnerability affecting the affected product, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.

Recommended administrator action

Confirm whether the affected product is present and compare installed versions with the vendor advisory and NVD record. Apply the vendor patch or documented mitigation; until remediation is complete, reduce exposure of affected interfaces, review relevant logs and monitor for indicators of exploitation. DataHouse can support version verification, managed patching, network exposure reduction, log review and backup validation for dedicated, cloud and colocated environments.
