[kvm-unit-tests RESEND PATCH] x86: Fix id_map buffer overflow and PT corruption

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

 



Commit 18a34cce introduced init_apic_map. It iterates over
sizeof(online_cpus) * 8 items and sets APIC ids in id_map.
However, online_cpus is defined (in x86/cstart[64].S) as a 64-bit
variable. After i >= 64, init_apic_map begins to read out of bounds of
online_cpus. If it finds a non-zero value there enough times,
it then proceeds to potentially overflow id_map in assignment.

In our test case id_map was linked close to pg_base. As a result page
table was corrupted and we've seen sporadic failures of ioapic test.
