[GIT PULL FOR v4.16] v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c: remove set_fs(KERNEL_DS)

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

 



This patch series fixes a number of bugs and culminates in the removal
of the set_fs(KERNEL_DS) call in v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c.

See http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-13166.html
for why this set_fs call is a bad idea.

In order to test this I used vivid and a 32-bit v4l2-compliance. The
advantage of vivid is that it implements almost all ioctls, and those
are all tested by v4l2-compliance. This ensures good test coverage.

Since I had to track down all failures that v4l2-compliance reported
in order to verify whether those were introduced by the final patch
or if those were pre-existing bugs, this series starts off with fixes
for bugs that v4l2-compliance found, mostly in v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c.
It is clear that v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c doesn't receive a lot of
testing.

There are also three patches that just clean up v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c
in order to simplify the final patch:

  v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c: fix the indentation
  v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c: move 'helper' functions to __get/put_v4l2_format32
  v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c: avoid sizeof(type)

No functional changes are introduced in these three patches.

Note the "fix ctrl_is_pointer" patch: we've discussed this in the past,
but now I really had to fix this.

It would be really nice if the next time someone finds a security risk
in V4L2 core code they would contact the V4L2 maintainers. We only heard
about this last week, while all the information about this CVE has been
out there for several months or so.

Backporting this will be a bit of a nightmare since v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c
changes frequently, so assuming we'll only backport this to lts kernels
then for each lts the patch series needs to be adapted. But let's get
this upstream first before looking at that.

This pull request has Cc's to stable to get this in for 4.15 (it should
apply cleanly for 4.15).

Regards,

	Hans
