[PATCH v3] KVM: VMX: Fix crash due to uninitialized current_vmcs

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

 



KVM enables 'Enlightened VMCS' and 'Enlightened MSR Bitmap' when running as
a nested hypervisor on top of Hyper-V. When MSR bitmap is updated,
evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap function uses current_vmcs per-cpu variable to mark
that the msr bitmap was changed.

vmx_vcpu_create() modifies the msr bitmap via vmx_disable_intercept_for_msr
-> vmx_msr_bitmap_l01_changed which in the end calls this function. The
function checks for current_vmcs if it is null but the check is
insufficient because current_vmcs is not initialized. Because of this, the
code might incorrectly write to the structure pointed by current_vmcs value
left by another task. Preemption is not disabled, the current task can be
preempted and moved to another CPU while current_vmcs is accessed multiple
times from evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap() which leads to crash.

The manipulation of MSR bitmaps by callers happens only for vmcs01 so the
solution is to use vmx->vmcs01.vmcs instead of current_vmcs.

v3:
  - pass hv_enlightened_vmcs * directly

v2:
  - pass (e)vmcs01 to evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap
  - use loaded_vmcs * instead of vcpu_vmx * to avoid
    including vmx.h which generates circular dependency
