[PATCH 0/3] Fix unsafe BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN interface

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

 



Right now, there is no safe way to use BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN with data_out.
This is because bpf_test_finish copies the output buffer to user space
without checking its size. This can lead to the kernel overwriting
data in user space after the buffer if xdp_adjust_head and friends are
in play.

Fix this by using bpf_attr.test.data_size_out as a size hint. The old
behaviour is retained if size_hint is zero.

Interestingly, do_test_single() in test_verifier.c already assumes
that this is the intended use of data_size_out, and sets it to the
output buffer size.

Lorenz Bauer (3):
  bpf: respect size hint to BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN if present
  libbpf: require size hint in bpf_prog_test_run
  selftests: add a test for bpf_prog_test_run output size
