Siddhesh Poyarekar a9728f798e getaddrinfo: Fix use after free in getcanonname (CVE-2023-4806) ... When an NSS plugin only implements the _gethostbyname2_r and _getcanonname_r callbacks, getaddrinfo could use memory that was freed during tmpbuf resizing, through h_name in a previous query response. The backing store for res->at->name when doing a query with gethostbyname3_r or gethostbyname2_r is tmpbuf, which is reallocated in gethosts during the query. For AF_INET6 lookup with AI_ALL | AI_V4MAPPED, gethosts gets called twice, once for a v6 lookup and second for a v4 lookup. In this case, if the first call reallocates tmpbuf enough number of times, resulting in a malloc, th->h_name (that res->at->name refers to) ends up on a heap allocated storage in tmpbuf. Now if the second call to gethosts also causes the plugin callback to return NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN, tmpbuf will get freed, resulting in a UAF reference in res->at->name. This then gets dereferenced in the getcanonname_r plugin call, resulting in the use after free. Fix this by copying h_name over and freeing it at the end. This resolves BZ #30843, which is assigned CVE-2023-4806. Signed-off-by: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org> (cherry picked from commit 973fe93a56)		2023-09-15 18:24:58 -04:00
