If you e.g. recompiled the wrong parts of the "btcheck" project with such changed UAPI headers, I think you'd get OOB writes, because they have this in a header (https://sources.debian.org/src/btcheck/2.1-4/src/kernelcryptoapi.h/?hl=29#L29): typedef struct { struct sockaddr_alg sa; int safd; int fd; } lkca_hash_ctx; so if you rebuilt e.g. kernelcryptoapi.o (which uses the struct) without also rebuilding hash.o (which allocates the struct), code in kernelcryptoapi.o would write beyond the end of lkca_hash_ctx, I think. Sure, there aren't many places that do this kind of thing for this struct. But at least in theory, you can't change the size of UAPI structs because someone might be passing instances of that struct around between object files. > At the very least the kernel needs to switch to using a correctly-sized > structure: I expected UBSAN_BOUNDS to be enabled globally by default at > some point in the future (with the minimal runtime -- the > instrumentation is tiny and catches real issues). Yeah, the kernel should probably use a struct that looks different from the userspace one. :/ I guess we'll probably end up with some ugly hack with "#ifdef __KERNEL__", where the same struct has different sizes between kernel and userspace? Or am I being too puritan about UAPI consistency? > Reproduction: > > struct sockaddr_alg sa = { > .salg_family = AF_ALG, > .salg_type = "skcipher", > .salg_name = "cbc(aes)" > }; > fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0); > bind(fd, (void *)&sa, sizeof(sa)); > > Replace "sizeof(sa)" with x where 64<x<=128. I think you mean 88<x<=128 ?
