Subject: [PATCH] x86,kexec,ima: use memblock_free_late from ima_free_kexec_buffer
Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2023 23:31:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230908233127.0af375d1@imladris.surriel.com> (raw)
The code calling ima_free_kexec_buffer runs long after the memblock
allocator has already been torn down, potentially resulting in a use
after free in memblock_isolate_range.
With KASAN or KFENCE, this use after free will result in a BUG
from the idle task, and a subsequent kernel panic.
Switch ima_free_kexec_buffer over to memblock_free_late to avoid
that issue.
Fixes: fee3ff99bc67 ("powerpc: Move arch independent ima kexec functions to drivers/of/kexec.c")
