[ Upstream commit 71f656a50176915d6813751188b5758daa8d012b ]
Register range information is copied in several places. The intent is to transfer range/id information from one register/stack spill to another. Currently this is done using direct register assignment, e.g.:
static void find_equal_scalars(..., struct bpf_reg_state *known_reg) { ... struct bpf_reg_state *reg; ... *reg = *known_reg; ... }
However, such assignments also copy the following bpf_reg_state fields:
struct bpf_reg_state { ... struct bpf_reg_state *parent; ... enum bpf_reg_liveness live; ... };
Copying of these fields is accidental and incorrect, as could be demonstrated by the following example:
0: call ktime_get_ns() 1: r6 = r0 2: call ktime_get_ns() 3: r7 = r0 4: if r0 > r6 goto +1 ; r0 & r6 are unbound thus generated ; branch states are identical 5: *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) = 0xdeadbeef ; 64-bit write to fp[-8] --- checkpoint --- 6: r1 = 42 ; r1 marked as written 7: *(u8 *)(r10 - 8) = r1 ; 8-bit write, fp[-8] parent & live ; overwritten 8: r2 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) 9: r0 = 0 10: exit
This example is unsafe because 64-bit write to fp[-8] at (5) is conditional, thus not all bytes of fp[-8] are guaranteed to be set when it is read at (8). However, currently the example passes verification.
First, the execution path 1-10 is examined by verifier. Suppose that a new checkpoint is created by is_state_visited() at (6). After checkpoint creation: - r1.parent points to checkpoint.r1, - fp[-8].parent points to checkpoint.fp[-8]. At (6) the r1.live is set to REG_LIVE_WRITTEN. At (7) the fp[-8].parent is set to r1.parent and fp[-8].live is set to REG_LIVE_WRITTEN, because of the following code called in check_stack_write_fixed_off():
static void save_register_state(struct bpf_func_state *state, int spi, struct bpf_reg_state *reg, int size) { ... state->stack[spi].spilled_ptr = *reg; // <--- parent & live copied if (size == BPF_REG_SIZE) state->stack[spi].spilled_ptr.live |= REG_LIVE_WRITTEN; ... }
Note the intent to mark stack spill as written only if 8 bytes are spilled to a slot, however this intent is spoiled by a 'live' field copy. At (8) the checkpoint.fp[-8] should be marked as REG_LIVE_READ but this does not happen: - fp[-8] in a current state is already marked as REG_LIVE_WRITTEN; - fp[-8].parent points to checkpoint.r1, parentage chain is used by mark_reg_read() to mark checkpoint states. At (10) the verification is finished for path 1-10 and jump 4-6 is examined. The checkpoint.fp[-8] never gets REG_LIVE_READ mark and this spill is pruned from the cached states by clean_live_states(). Hence verifier state obtained via path 1-4,6 is deemed identical to one obtained via path 1-6 and program marked as safe.
Note: the example should be executed with BPF_F_TEST_STATE_FREQ flag set to force creation of intermediate verifier states.
This commit revisits the locations where bpf_reg_state instances are copied and replaces the direct copies with a call to a function copy_register_state(dst, src) that preserves 'parent' and 'live' fields of the 'dst'.
