CVE-2023-52453: hisi_acc_vfio_pci: Update migration data pointer correctly on saving/resume

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.22% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 45f80b2f230df10600e6fa1b83b28bf1c334185e, 6bda81e24a35a856f58e6a5786de579b07371603, be12ad45e15b5ee0e2526a50266ba1d295d26a88.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 45f80b2f230df10600e6fa1b83b28bf1c334185e, 6bda81e24a35a856f58e6a5786de579b07371603, be12ad45e15b5ee0e2526a50266ba1d295d26a88 or later.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hisi_acc_vfio_pci: Update migration data pointer correctly on saving/resume When the optional PRE_COPY support was added to speed up the device compatibility check, it failed to update the saving/resuming data pointers based on the fd offset. This results in migration data corruption and when the device gets started on the destination the following error is reported in some cases, [ 478.907684] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: event 0x10 received: [ 478.913691] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000310200000010 [ 478.919603] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x000002088000007f [ 478.925515] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000000000000000 [ 478.931425] arm-smmu-v3 arm-smmu-v3.2.auto: 0x0000000000000000 [ 478.947552] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm_axi_rresp [error status=0x1] found [ 478.955930] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm_db_timeout [error status=0x400] found [ 478.955944] hisi_zip 0000:31:00.0: qm sq doorbell timeout in function 2

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No history yet (it accumulates with the daily EPSS job).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
