[PATCH 0/3] x86/sev-es: Check for trusted regs->sp in __sev_es_ist_enter()

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

 



From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

Hi,

here are some changes to the Linux SEV-ES code to check whether the
value in regs->sp can be trusted, before checking whether it points to
the #VC IST stack.

Andy Lutomirski reported that it is entirely possible to reach this
function with a regs->sp value which was set by user-space. So check
for this condition and don't use regs->sp if it can't be trusted.

Also improve the comments around __sev_es_ist_enter/exit() to better
explain what these function do and why they are there.

Please review.

Thanks,

	Joerg
