[Linux-stable-mirror] [PATCH v4 00/10] prevent bounds-check bypass via speculative execution

by Dan Williams

Changes since v3 [1] * Drop 'ifence_array_ptr' and associated compile-time + run-time switching and just use the masking approach all the time. * Convert 'get_user' to use pointer sanitization via masking rather than lfence. '__get_user' and associated paths still rely on lfence. (Linus) "Basically, the rule is trivial: find all 'stac' users, and use address masking if those users already integrate the limit check, and lfence they don't." * At syscall entry sanitize the syscall number under speculation to remove a user controlled pointer de-reference in kernel space. (Linus) * Fix a raw lfence in the kvm code (added for v4.15-rc8) to use 'array_ptr'. * Propose 'array_idx' as a way to sanitize user input that is later used as an array index, but where the validation is happening in a different code block than the array reference. (Christian). * Fix grammar in speculation.txt (Kees) --- Quoting Mark's original RFC: "Recently, Google Project Zero discovered several classes of attack against speculative execution. One of these, known as variant-1, allows explicit bounds checks to be bypassed under speculation, providing an arbitrary read gadget. Further details can be found on the GPZ blog [2] and the Documentation patch in this series." A precondition of using this attack on the kernel is to get a user controlled pointer de-referenced (under speculation) in privileged code. The primary source of user controlled pointers in the kernel is the arguments passed to 'get_user' and '__get_user'. An example of other user controlled pointers are user-controlled array / pointer offsets. Better tooling is needed to find more arrays / pointers with user controlled indices / offsets that can be converted to use 'array_ptr' or 'array_idx'. A few are included in this set, and these are not expected to be complete. That said, the 'get_user' protections raise the bar on finding a vulnerable gadget in the kernel. These patches are also available via the 'nospec-v4' git branch here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djbw/linux nospec-v4 Note that the BPF fix for Spectre variant1 is merged for 4.15-rc8.

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tracing: Fix converting enum's from the map in trace_event_eval_update() to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=sum… The filename of the patch is: tracing-fix-converting-enum-s-from-the-map-in-trace_event_eval_update.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From 1ebe1eaf2f02784921759992ae1fde1a9bec8fd0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt(a)goodmis.org> Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2018 15:53:10 -0500 Subject: tracing: Fix converting enum's from the map in trace_event_eval_update() From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt(a)goodmis.org> commit 1ebe1eaf2f02784921759992ae1fde1a9bec8fd0 upstream. Since enums do not get converted by the TRACE_EVENT macro into their values, the event format displaces the enum name and not the value. This breaks tools like perf and trace-cmd that need to interpret the raw binary data. To solve this, an enum map was created to convert these enums into their actual numbers on boot up. This is done by TRACE_EVENTS() adding a TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro. Some enums were not being converted. This was caused by an optization that had a bug in it. All calls get checked against this enum map to see if it should be converted or not, and it compares the call's system to the system that the enum map was created under. If they match, then they call is processed. To cut down on the number of iterations needed to find the maps with a matching system, since calls and maps are grouped by system, when a match is made, the index into the map array is saved, so that the next call, if it belongs to the same system as the previous call, could start right at that array index and not have to scan all the previous arrays. The problem was, the saved index was used as the variable to know if this is a call in a new system or not. If the index was zero, it was assumed that the call is in a new system and would keep incrementing the saved index until it found a matching system. The issue arises when the first matching system was at index zero. The next map, if it belonged to the same system, would then think it was the first match and increment the index to one. If the next call belong to the same system, it would begin its search of the maps off by one, and miss the first enum that should be converted. This left a single enum not converted properly. Also add a comment to describe exactly what that index was for. It took me a bit too long to figure out what I was thinking when debugging this issue.

[Linux-stable-mirror] Patch "phy: work around 'phys' references to usb-nop-xceiv devices" has been added to the 4.9-stable tree

by gregkh＠linuxfoundation.org

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled phy: work around 'phys' references to usb-nop-xceiv devices to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=sum… The filename of the patch is: phy-work-around-phys-references-to-usb-nop-xceiv-devices.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable(a)vger.kernel.org> know about it. >From b7563e2796f8b23c98afcfea7363194227fa089d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd(a)arndb.de> Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2018 11:12:05 +0100 Subject: phy: work around 'phys' references to usb-nop-xceiv devices From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd(a)arndb.de> commit b7563e2796f8b23c98afcfea7363194227fa089d upstream. Stefan Wahren reports a problem with a warning fix that was merged for v4.15: we had lots of device nodes with a 'phys' property pointing to a device node that is not compliant with the binding documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/phy-bindings.txt This generally works because USB HCD drivers that support both the generic phy subsystem and the older usb-phy subsystem ignore most errors from phy_get() and related calls and then use the usb-phy driver instead. However, it turns out that making the usb-nop-xceiv device compatible with the generic-phy binding changes the phy_get() return code from -EINVAL to -EPROBE_DEFER, and the dwc2 usb controller driver for bcm2835 now returns -EPROBE_DEFER from its probe function rather than ignoring the failure, breaking all USB support on raspberry-pi when CONFIG_GENERIC_PHY is enabled. The same code is used in the dwc3 driver and the usb_add_hcd() function, so a reasonable assumption would be that many other platforms are affected as well. I have reviewed all the related patches and concluded that "usb-nop-xceiv" is the only USB phy that is affected by the change, and since it is by far the most commonly referenced phy, all the other USB phy drivers appear to be used in ways that are are either safe in DT (they don't use the 'phys' property), or in the driver (they already ignore -EPROBE_DEFER from generic-phy when usb-phy is available). To work around the problem, this adds a special case to _of_phy_get() so we ignore any PHY node that is compatible with "usb-nop-xceiv", as we know that this can never load no matter how much we defer. In the future, we might implement a generic-phy driver for "usb-nop-xceiv" and then remove this workaround. Since we generally want older kernels to also want to work with the fixed devicetree files, it would be good to backport the patch into stable kernels as well (3.13+ are possibly affected), even though they don't contain any of the patches that may have caused regressions.
