TITLE

Multiple TCP Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) and Maximum Segment Size (MSS) networking vulnerabilities may cause denial-of-service conditions in Linux and FreeBSD kernels

DESCRIPTION

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP retransmission queue implementation in tcp_fragment in the Linux kernel could be fragmented when handling certain TCP Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) sequences. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e. Multiple TCP Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) and Maximum Segment Size (MSS) networking vulnerabilities may cause denial-of-service conditions in Linux and FreeBSD kernels. Linux Kernel Contains a resource exhaustion vulnerability.Service operation interruption (DoS) There is a possibility of being put into a state. This vulnerability stems from improper management of system resources (such as memory, disk space, files, etc.) by network systems or products. ========================================================================== Kernel Live Patch Security Notice 0058-1 October 22, 2019 linux vulnerability ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu: | Series | Base kernel | Arch | flavors | |------------------+--------------+----------+------------------| | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | aws | | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | generic | | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | lowlatency | | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | oem | | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS | 5.0.0 | amd64 | azure | | Ubuntu 14.04 LTS | 4.4.0 | amd64 | generic | | Ubuntu 14.04 LTS | 4.4.0 | amd64 | lowlatency | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.4.0 | amd64 | aws | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.4.0 | amd64 | generic | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.4.0 | amd64 | lowlatency | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | azure | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | generic | | Ubuntu 16.04 LTS | 4.15.0 | amd64 | lowlatency | Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the kernel.

While processing SACK segments, the Linux kernel's socket buffer (SKB) data structure becomes fragmented. To efficiently process SACK blocks, the Linux kernel merges multiple fragmented SKBs into one, potentially overflowing the variable holding the number of segments. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the Linux kernel by sending a crafted sequence of SACK segments on a TCP connection with small value of TCP MSS, resulting in a denial of service (DoS). (CVE-2019-11477) * Kernel: tcp: excessive resource consumption while processing SACK blocks allows remote denial of service (CVE-2019-11478) * Kernel: tcp: excessive resource consumption for TCP connections with low MSS allows remote denial of service (CVE-2019-11479) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. 4. Solution: For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 The system must be rebooted for this update to take effect. 5.

The most serious, dubbed _“SACK Panic_,” allows a remotely-triggered kernel panic on recent Linux kernels. There are patches that address most of these vulnerabilities. If patches can not be applied, certain mitigations will be effective. We recommend that affected parties enact one of those described below, based on their environment. __Fix:__ Apply the patch [PATCH_net_1_4.patch](2019-001/PATCH_net_1_4.patch). Additionally, versions of the Linux kernel up to, and including, 4.14 require a second patch [PATCH_net_1a.patch](2019-001/PATCH_net_1a.patch). __Workaround #1:__ Block connections with a low MSS using one of the supplied [filters](2019-001/block-low-mss/README.md). (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or lower limit, as appropriate for your environment.) Note that these filters may break legitimate connections which rely on a low MSS. Also, note that this mitigation is only effective if TCP probing is disabled (that is, the `net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing` sysctl is set to 0, which appears to be the default value for that sysctl). __Workaround #2:__ Disable SACK processing (`/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack` set to 0). (Note that either workaround should be sufficient on its own. It is not necessary to apply both workarounds.) ### 2: [CVE-2019-11478](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11478): SACK Slowness (Linux < 4.15) or Excess Resource Usage (all Linux versions) __Description:__ It is possible to send a crafted sequence of SACKs which will fragment the TCP retransmission queue. On Linux kernels prior to 4.15, an attacker may be able to further exploit the fragmented queue to cause an expensive linked-list walk for subsequent SACKs received for that same TCP connection. __Fix:__ Apply the patch [PATCH_net_2_4.patch](2019-001/PATCH_net_2_4.patch) __Workaround #1:__ Block connections with a low MSS using one of the supplied [filters](2019-001/block-low-mss/README.md). (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or lower limit, as appropriate for your environment.) Note that these filters may break legitimate connections which rely on a low MSS. Also, note that this mitigation is only effective if TCP probing is disabled (that is, the `net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing` sysctl is set to 0, which appears to be the default value for that sysctl). __Workaround #2:__ Disable SACK processing (`/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack` set to 0). (Note that either workaround should be sufficient on its own. It is not necessary to apply both workarounds.) ### 3: [CVE-2019-5599](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-5599): SACK Slowness (FreeBSD 12 using the RACK TCP Stack) __Description:__ It is possible to send a crafted sequence of SACKs which will fragment the RACK send map. An attacker may be able to further exploit the fragmented send map to cause an expensive linked-list walk for subsequent SACKs received for that same TCP connection. __Workaround #1:__ Apply the patch [split_limit.patch](2019-001/split_limit.patch) and set the `net.inet.tcp.rack.split_limit` sysctl to a reasonable value to limit the size of the SACK table. __Workaround #2:__ Temporarily disable the RACK TCP stack. (Note that either workaround should be sufficient on its own. It is not necessary to apply both workarounds.) ### 4: [CVE-2019-11479](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11479): Excess Resource Consumption Due to Low MSS Values (all Linux versions) __Description:__ An attacker can force the Linux kernel to segment its responses into multiple TCP segments, each of which contains only 8 bytes of data. This drastically increases the bandwidth required to deliver the same amount of data. Further, it consumes additional resources (CPU and NIC processing power). This attack requires continued effort from the attacker and the impacts will end shortly after the attacker stops sending traffic. __Fix:__ Two patches [PATCH_net_3_4.patch](2019-001/PATCH_net_3_4.patch) and [PATCH_net_4_4.patch](2019-001/PATCH_net_4_4.patch) add a sysctl which enforces a minimum MSS, set by the `net.ipv4.tcp_min_snd_mss` sysctl. This lets an administrator enforce a minimum MSS appropriate for their applications. __Workaround:__ Block connections with a low MSS using one of the supplied [filters](2019-001/block-low-mss/README.md). (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or lower limit, as appropriate for your environment.) Note that these filters may break legitimate connections which rely on a low MSS. Also, note that this mitigation is only effective if TCP probing is disabled (that is, the `net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing` sysctl is set to 0, which appears to be the default value for that sysctl). ### Note: Good system and application coding and configuration practices (limiting write buffers to the necessary level, monitoring connection memory consumption via SO_MEMINFO, and aggressively closing misbehaving connections) can help to limit the impact of attacks against these kinds of vulnerabilities. ## Acknowledgments: Originally reported by Jonathan Looney.
