[PATCH v2 1/1] io_uring: prevent reg-wait speculations

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With *ENTER_EXT_ARG_REG instead of passing a user pointer with arguments
for the waiting loop the user can specify an offset into a pre-mapped
region of memory, in which case the
[offset, offset + sizeof(io_uring_reg_wait)) will be intepreted as the
argument.

As we address a kernel array using a user given index, it'd be a subject
to speculation type of exploits. Use array_index_nospec() to prevent
that. Make sure to pass not the full region size but truncate by the
maximum offset allowed considering the structure size.

Fixes: d617b3147d54c ("io_uring: restore back registered wait arguments")
Fixes: aa00f67adc2c0 ("io_uring: add support for fixed wait regions")
