KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix use after free in case of multiple resize requests
When serving multiple resize requests following could happen: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- kvm_vm_ioctl_resize_hpt_prepare(1); -> schedule_work() /* system_rq might be busy: delay */ kvm_vm_ioctl_resize_hpt_prepare(2); mutex_lock(); if (resize) { ... release_hpt_resize(); } ... resize_hpt_prepare_work() -> schedule_work() { mutex_unlock() /* resize->kvm could be wrong */ struct kvm *kvm = resize->kvm; mutex_lock(&kvm->lock); <<<< UAF ... } i.e. a second resize request with different order could be started by kvm_vm_ioctl_resize_hpt_prepare(), causing the previous request to be free()d when there's still an active worker thread which will try to access it. This leads to a use after free in point marked with UAF on the diagram above. To prevent this from happening, instead of unconditionally releasing a pre-existing resize structure from the prepare ioctl(), we check if the existing structure has an in-progress worker. We do that by checking if the resize->error == -EBUSY, which is safe because the resize->error field is protected by the kvm->lock. If there is an active worker, instead of releasing, we mark the structure as stale by unlinking it from kvm_struct. In the worker thread we check for a stale structure (with kvm->lock held), and in that case abort, releasing the stale structure ourself. We make the check both before and the actual allocation. Strictly, only the check afterwards is needed, the check before is an optimization: if the structure happens to become stale before the worker thread is dispatched, rather than during the allocation, it means we can avoid allocating then immediately freeing a potentially substantial amount of memory. This fixes following or similar host kernel crash message: [ 635.277361] Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000 [ 635.277438] Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000052f568 [ 635.277446] Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] [ 635.277451] SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA PowerNV [ 635.277470] Modules linked in: xt_CHECKSUM iptable_mangle ipt_MASQUERADE nf_nat_masquerade_ipv4 iptable_nat nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_conntrack nf_conntrack ipt_REJECT nf_reject_ipv4 tun bridge stp llc ebtable_filter ebtables ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_filter nfsv3 nfs_acl nfs lockd grace fscache kvm_hv kvm rpcrdma sunrpc ib_isert iscsi_target_mod ib_iser libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi ib_srpt target_core_mod ext4 ib_srp scsi_transport_srp ib_ipoib mbcache jbd2 rdma_ucm ib_ucm ib_uverbs ib_umad rdma_cm ib_cm iw_cm ocrdma(T) ib_core ses enclosure scsi_transport_sas sg shpchp leds_powernv ibmpowernv i2c_opal i2c_core powernv_rng ipmi_powernv ipmi_devintf ipmi_msghandler ip_tables xfs libcrc32c sr_mod sd_mod cdrom lpfc nvme_fc(T) nvme_fabrics nvme_core ipr nvmet_fc(T) tg3 nvmet libata be2net crc_t10dif crct10dif_generic scsi_transport_fc ptp scsi_tgt pps_core crct10dif_common dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [ 635.278687] CPU: 40 PID: 749 Comm: kworker/40:1 Tainted: G ------------ T 3.10.0.bz1510771+ #1 [ 635.278782] Workqueue: events resize_hpt_prepare_work [kvm_hv] [ 635.278851] task: c0000007e6840000 ti: c0000007e9180000 task.ti: c0000007e9180000 [ 635.278919] NIP: c00000000052f568 LR: c0000000009ea310 CTR: c0000000009ea4f0 [ 635.278988] REGS: c0000007e91837f0 TRAP: 0300 Tainted: G ------------ T (3.10.0.bz1510771+) [ 635.279077] MSR: 9000000100009033 <SF,HV,EE,ME,IR,DR,RI,LE> CR: 24002022 XER: 00000000 [ 635.279248] CFAR: c000000000009368 DAR: 0000000000000000 DSISR: 40000000 SOFTE: 1 GPR00: c0000000009ea310 c0000007e9183a70 c000000001250b00 c0000007e9183b10 GPR04: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 c0000007e9183650 0000000000000000 GPR08: c0000007ffff7b80 00000000ffffffff 0000000080000028 d00000000d2529a0 GPR12: 0000000000002200 c000000007b56800 c000000000120028 c0000007f135bb40 GPR16: 0000000000000000 c000000005c1e018 c000000005c1e018 0000000000000000 GPR20: 0000000000000001 c0000000011bf778 0000000000000001 fffffffffffffef7 GPR24: 0000000000000000 c000000f1e262e50 0000000000000002 c0000007e9180000 GPR28: c000000f1e262e4c c000000f1e262e50 0000000000000000 c0000007e9183b10 [ 635.280149] NIP [c00000000052f568] __list_add+0x38/0x110 [ 635.280197] LR [c0000000009ea310] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0xe0/0x2c0 [ 635.280253] Call Trace: [ 635.280277] [c0000007e9183af0] [c0000000009ea310] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0xe0/0x2c0 [ 635.280356] [c0000007e9183b70] [c0000000009ea554] mutex_lock+0x64/0x70 [ 635.280426] [c0000007e9183ba0] [d00000000d24da04] resize_hpt_prepare_work+0xe4/0x1c0 [kvm_hv] [ 635.280507] [c0000007e9183c40] [c000000000113c0c] process_one_work+0x1dc/0x680 [ 635.280587] [c0000007e9183ce0] [c000000000114250] worker_thread+0x1a0/0x520 [ 635.280655] [c0000007e9183d80] [c00000000012010c] kthread+0xec/0x100 [ 635.280724] [c0000007e9183e30] [c00000000000a4b8] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xa4 [ 635.280814] Instruction dump: [ 635.280880] 7c0802a6 fba1ffe8 fbc1fff0 7cbd2b78 fbe1fff8 7c9e2378 7c7f1b78 f8010010 [ 635.281099] f821ff81 e8a50008 7fa52040 40de00b8 <e8be0000> 7fbd2840 40de008c 7fbff040 [ 635.281324] ---[ end trace b628b73449719b9d ]--- Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.10+ Fixes: b5baa687 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: KVM-HV HPT resizing implementation") Signed-off-by: Serhii Popovych <spopovyc@redhat.com> [dwg: Replaced BUG_ON()s with WARN_ONs() and reworded commit message for clarity] Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
