KVM: arm64: vgic: Handle race between interrupt affinity change and LPI disabling
Hyunwoo Kim reports some really bad races should the following
situation occur:
- LPI-I is pending in vcpu-B's AP list
- vcpu-A writes to vcpu-B's RD to disable its LPIs
- vcpu-C moves I from B to C
If the last two race nicely enough, vgic_prune_ap_list() can drop
the irq and AP list locks, reacquire them, and in the interval
the irq has been freed. UAF follows.
The fix is two-fold:
- Before dropping the irq and ap_list locks, take a reference on
the irq
- Do not try to handle migration of the pending bit: there is no
expectation that this state is retained, as per the architecture
With that, we're sure that the interrupt is still around, and we
safely remove it from the AP list as it has no target at this
stage (unless another interrupt fires, but that's another story). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Move vTPR vs. TPR Threshold consistency check into "normal" checks
Move the off-by-default consistency check for vmcs12.tpr_threshold vs.
the virtual APIC vTPR into the "normal" controls checks, as waiting until
KVM has loaded some amount of state is unnecessary and actively dangerous.
Specifically, failure to unwind vmcs01.GUEST_CR3 to KVM's value when EPT
is disabled results in KVM running L1 with an L1-controlled CR3, not with
KVM's CR3!
Alternatively, KVM could simply reset the MMU to force a reload of
vmcs01.GUEST_CR3, but the _only_ reason the check was shoved into a "late"
flow was to wait until the vmcs12 pages were retrieved. Rather than build
up more crusty code, simply access vTPR using a regular guest memory access
(performance isn't a concern). To circumvent the restrictions that led to
KVM deferring nested_get_vmcs12_pages(), (a) use a VM-scoped API to read
guest memory so that it always hits non-SMM memslots (for RSM), and (b)
skip the check (since its off-by-default anyways) when the vCPU doesn't
want to run, i.e. when userspace is restoring/stuffing state.
If reading guest memory fails, simply skip the consistency check, as KVM's
de facto ABI is that VMX instruction accesses to non-existent memory get
PCI Bus Error semantics, where reads return 0xFFs. And if vTPR=0xFF, then
the vTPR is guaranteed to be greater than or equal to TPR_THRESHOLD. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SEV: Do not allow intra-host migration/mirroring of SNP VMs
The intra-host migration/mirroring feature is not fully implemented for
SEV-SNP VMs. The proper migration requires additional SNP-specific
state such as guest_req_mutex, guest_req_buf, and guest_resp_buf to be
transferred or initialized on the destination.
The SNP VM mirroring requires vmsa features to be copied as well otherwise
ASID would be bound to SNP range while VM is detected as a SEV VM.
Reject SNP source VMs in migration/mirroring until proper SNP state
transfer is implemented.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: TDX: Reject concurrent change to CPUID entry count
Reject KVM_TDX_INIT_VM if userspace changes cpuid.nent between the
initial read and the subsequent copy of the initialization data.
tdx_td_init() first reads user_data->cpuid.nent to size the flexible
kvm_tdx_init_vm copy. The copied structure also contains cpuid.nent,
and that field can differ from the value used to size the allocation if
userspace modifies the input concurrently. setup_tdparams_cpuids() later
passes init_vm->cpuid.nent to kvm_find_cpuid_entry2(), which uses it as
the array bound for the copied entries.
Require the copied count to match the value used to size the allocation
so that CPUID parsing cannot access beyond the entries actually copied. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Ignore pending PV EOI if the vCPU has since disabled PV EOIs
Ignore KVM's internal "service pending PV EOI" request if the vCPU has
disabled PV EOIs since the request was made. Asserting that PV EOIs are
enabled can fail if reading guest memory in pv_eoi_get_user() fails, i.e.
if pv_eoi_test_and_clr_pending() bails early, *and* the vCPU also disables
PV EOIs.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Nullify irqfd->producer if updating IRTE for bypass fails
Nullify irqfd->producer if updating the IRTE for bypass fails, as leaving a
dangling pointer will result in a use-after-free if the irqfd is reachable
through KVM's routing, but the producer is freed separately. E.g. for VFIO
PCI, the producer is embedded in struct "vfio_pci_irq_ctx" and freed when
the vector is disabled, which can happen independent of routing updates.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Move kvm_io_bus_get_dev() locking responsibilities to callers
kvm_io_bus_get_dev() returns a device that is only matched by the
address, and nothing else. This can cause a lifetime issue if
the matched device is not the expected type, as by the time
the caller can introspect the object, it might be gone (the srcu
lock having been dropped).
Given that there is only a single user of this helper, the simplest
option is to move the locking responsibility to the caller, which
can keep the srcu lock held for as long as it wants.
Note that this aligns with other kvm_io_bus*() helpers, which
already require the srcu lock to be held by the callers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Drop bogus WARN for write to ZCR_EL2
It is entirely possible for a guest to write to the ZCR_EL2 sysreg alias
while in a nested context, as it is expected if FEAT_NV2 is advertised
to the L1 hypervisor.
Get rid of the bogus WARN which, since the hyp vectors were installed at
this point, has the effect of a hyp_panic... |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Respect read-only PFN when mapping L1 VNCR
KVM currently maps the L1 VNCR into the host stage-1 by relying entirely
on the permissions of the guest stage-1. At the same time, it is
entirely possible that the backing PFN is read-only (e.g. RO memslot),
meaning that the L1 VNCR should use at most a read-only mapping.
Cache the writability of the PFN in the VNCR TLB and use it to constrain
the resulting fixmap permissions. Promote VNCR permission faults to an
SEA in the case where the guest attempts to write to a read-only
endpoint. Conveniently, this also plugs a page leak found by Sashiko [*]
resulting from the early return for a read-only PFN. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Re-translate VNCR before injecting abort
KVM faults in the VNCR page with FOLL_WRITE whenever the guest aborts
for a write, similar to how a regular stage-2 mapping is handled. It is
entirely possible that the guest reads from the VNCR before writing to
it, in which case the PFN could only be read-only.
Invalidate the VNCR TLB and re-fetch the translation upon taking a VNCR
abort, allowing the host mapping to be faulted in for write the second
time around. Interestingly enough, this also satisfies the ordering
requirements of FEAT_ETS2/3 between descriptor updates and MMU faults. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Inject SEA if guest VNCR isn't normal memory
When constructing an L1 VNCR mapping, KVM unconditionally uses cacheable
memory attributes, even if the underlying PFN isn't memory. This gets
particularly hairy if the endpoint doesn't support cacheable memory
attributes, potentially throwing an SError on writeback...
While KVM does permit cacheable memory attributes on certain PFNMAP
VMAs, kvm_translate_vncr() isn't currently grabbing the VMA. So do the
simpler thing for now and just reject everything that isn't memory. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: ipc3-control: Fix heap overflow in bytes_ext put/get
The ipc_control_data buffer is allocated as kzalloc(max_size), where
max_size covers the entire struct sof_ipc_ctrl_data including its
flexible array payload. However, the bounds checks in bytes_ext_put
and _bytes_ext_get compared user data lengths against max_size
directly, ignoring that cdata->data sits at an offset of
sizeof(struct sof_ipc_ctrl_data) bytes into the allocation.
This allowed writing up to sizeof(struct sof_ipc_ctrl_data) bytes past
the end of the heap buffer from unprivileged userspace via the ALSA TLV
kcontrol interface, and similarly allowed over-reading adjacent heap
data on the get path.
Fix all bounds checks to subtract sizeof(*cdata) from max_size so they
reflect the actual space available at the cdata->data offset. Also fix
the error-path restore in bytes_ext_put which wrote to cdata->data
instead of cdata, causing the same overflow. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: ipc3-control: Validate size in snd_sof_update_control
In snd_sof_update_control(), firmware-provided cdata->num_elems is
checked against local_cdata->data->size but never against the actual
allocation size. If local_cdata->data->size was previously set to an
inconsistent value, the memcpy could write past the allocated buffer.
Add a bounds check to ensure num_elems fits within the available space
in the ipc_control_data allocation before copying. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_queue: pin bridge device while NFQUEUE holds fake dst
The br_netfilter fake rtable is embedded in struct net_bridge and is
attached to bridged packets with skb_dst_set_noref(). If such a packet is
queued to NFQUEUE, __nf_queue() upgrades that fake dst with
skb_dst_force().
At that point the queued skb can hold a real dst reference after bridge
teardown has started. The problem is not that every bridged packet needs
its own dst reference. The problem is that NFQUEUE can keep the bridge
private fake dst alive after unregister begins.
Fix this by keeping the bridge fake dst model unchanged and pinning the
bridge master device only while the packet sits in NFQUEUE. Record the
bridge device in nf_queue_entry when the queued skb carries a bridge fake
dst, take a device reference for the queue lifetime, and drop it when the
queue entry is freed.
Also make sure queued entries are reaped when that bridge device goes
down, and drop the redundant nf_bridge_info_exists() test from the fake
dst detection.
This keeps netdev_priv(br->dev) alive until verdict completion, so the
embedded fake rtable and its metrics backing storage cannot be freed out
from under dst_release(). It also avoids the constant refcount bump and
avoids using ipv4-specific dst helpers for IPv6 bridge traffic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_fib: reject fib expression on the netdev egress hook
A fib expression in a netdev egress base chain dereferences nft_in(pkt),
NULL on the transmit path, causing a NULL pointer dereference at eval.
nft_fib_validate() masks the hook with NF_INET_* values, but netdev hook
numbers are a separate enum that aliases them (NF_NETDEV_EGRESS ==
NF_INET_LOCAL_IN), so an egress chain passes validation and then faults.
Add nft_fib_netdev_validate() that limits each result/flag to the netdev
hook where the device it reads exists: the input-device cases (OIF,
OIFNAME, ADDRTYPE with F_IIF) to ingress, the output-device case (ADDRTYPE
with F_OIF) to egress, ADDRTYPE with no device flag to both. Also restrict
nft_fib_validate() to NFPROTO_IPV4/IPV6/INET so its NF_INET_* masks are
not applied to another family's hooks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: validate skb_dst() before accessing it
tc ingress and openvswitch do not guarantee routing information to be
available. These subsystems use the conntrack helper infrastructure, and
the SIP helper relies on the skb_dst() to be present if
sip_external_media is set to 1 (which is disabled by default as a module
parameter).
This effectively disables the sip_external_media toggle for these
subsystems without resulting in a crash. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: don't leak bad clone into future transaction
On memory allocation failure the cloned nft_pipapo_match can enter a bad
state:
- some fields can have their lookup tables resized while others did
not
- bits might have been toggled
- scratch map can be undersized which also means m->bsize_max can be
lower than what is required
This means that the next insertion in the same batch can trigger
out-of-bounds writes.
Furthermore, a failure in the first can result in the bad clone to
leak into the next transaction because the abort callback is never
executed in this case (the upper layer saw an error and no attempt to
allocate a transactional request was made).
Record a state for the nft_pipapo_match structure:
- NEW (pristine clone)
- MOD (modified clone with good state)
- ERR (potentially bogus content)
Then make it so that deletes and insertions fail when the clone
entered ERR state.
In case the very first insert attempt results in an error, free the
clone right away. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_nat_sip: reload possible stale data pointer
quoting sashiko:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[..] noticed a potential memory bug and header corruption involving the
SIP NAT helper.
In net/netfilter/nf_nat_sip.c:nf_nat_sip():
if (skb_ensure_writable(skb, skb->len)) {
nf_ct_helper_log(skb, ct, "cannot mangle packet");
return NF_DROP;
}
uh = (void *)skb->data + protoff;
uh->dest = ct_sip_info->forced_dport;
if (!nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet(skb, ct, ctinfo, protoff,
0, 0, NULL, 0)) {
If a cloned or fragmented SKB is reallocated by skb_ensure_writable(), the
old data buffer is freed. However, nf_nat_sip() fails to update *dptr to
point to the new buffer.
It also appears to use nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet() on what could be a TCP
packet, which would overwrite the sequence number with a checksum update.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
nf_conntrack_sip linerizes skbs, hence no fragmented skb can be seen.
But clones are possible, so rebuild dptr.
Disable nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet() branch for TCP streams.
It doesn't look like this can ever happen, else we should have received
bug reports about this, so just check the conntrack is UDP and drop
otherwise.
The calling conntrack_sip set ->forced_dport for SIP_HDR_VIA_UDP messages,
so I don't think this is ever expected to be true for a TCP stream. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: guard mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defrag
nf_ct_frag6_reasm() slides the packet head forward to drop the IPv6
fragment header and then unconditionally advances skb->mac_header:
skb->mac_header += sizeof(struct frag_hdr);
On the NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT defrag path the skb has no link-layer header
yet, so skb->mac_header is still the "not set" sentinel (u16)~0U. Adding
sizeof(struct frag_hdr) wraps it to a small value (0xffff + 8 == 7),
after which skb_mac_header_was_set() wrongly reports a MAC header is
present and skb_mac_header() points into the headroom.
The reassembler has done this unconditional add since it was introduced;
it was harmless while mac_header was a bare pointer, but wrong once
mac_header became a u16 offset whose unset state is the ~0U sentinel
tested by skb_mac_header_was_set(). The sibling net/ipv6/reassembly.c
does the same relocation and does guard the adjustment; mirror the
guard here. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: use dst in this direction when pushing IPIP header
When pushing the IPIP header, the route of the other direction is used
to calculate the headroom, use the route in this direction. Accessing
the other tuple to set the IP source and destination is fine because
this tuple does not provide such information to avoid storing redundant
information. However, this tuple already provides the dst for this
direction, this went unnoticed because this bug affects headroom and
iph->frag_off only at this stage. |
