Synopsis: Low: rdma security, bug fix and enhancement update
Issue Date: 2013-02-21
CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-4517
CVE-2012-4518
--
A denial of service flaw was found in the way ibacm managed reference counts
for multicast connections. An attacker could send specially-crafted
multicast
packets that would cause the ibacm daemon to crash. (CVE-2012-4517)
It was found that the ibacm daemon created some files with world-writable
permissions. A local attacker could use this flaw to overwrite the
contents of
the ibacm.log or ibacm.port file, allowing them to mask certain actions from
the log or cause ibacm to run on a non-default port. (CVE-2012-4518)
The InfiniBand/iWARP/RDMA stack components have been upgraded to more recent
upstream versions.
This update also fixes the following bugs:
* Previously, the "ibnodes -h" command did not show a proper usage message.
With this update the problem is fixed and "ibnodes -h" now shows the correct
usage message.
* Previously, the ibv_devinfo utility erroneously showed iWARP cxgb3
hardware's
physical state as invalid even when the device was working. For iWARP
hardware,
the phys_state field has no meaning. This update patches the utility to not
print out anything for this field when the hardware is iWARP hardware.
* Prior to the release of Scientific Linux 6.3, the kernel created the
InfiniBand device files in the wrong place and a udev rules file was used to
force the devices to be created in the proper place. With the update to 6.3,
the kernel was fixed to create the InfiniBand device files in the proper
place,
and so the udev rules file was removed as no longer being necessary.
However, a
bug in the kernel device creation meant that, although the devices were now
being created in the right place, they had incorrect permissions.
Consequently,
when users attempted to run an RDMA application as a non-root user, the
application failed to get the necessary permissions to use the RDMA
device and
the application terminated. This update puts a new udev rules file in
place. It
no longer attempts to create the InfiniBand devices since they already
exist,
but it does correct the device permissions on the files.
* Previously, using the "perfquery -C" command with a host name caused the
perfquery utility to become unresponsive. The list of controllers to process
was never cleared and the process looped infinitely on a single
controller. A
patch has been applied to make sure that in the case where the user
passes in
the -C option, the controller list is cleared out once that controller
has been
processed. As a result, perfquery now works as expected in the scenario
described.
* The OpenSM init script did not handle the case where there were no
configuration files under "/etc/rdma/opensm.conf.*". With this update, the
script as been patched and the InfiniBand Subnet Manager, OpenSM, now
starts as
expected in the scenario described.
This update also adds the following enhancement:
* This update provides an updated mlx4_ib Mellanox driver which includes
Single
Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) support.
