[PATCH net] ppp: limit MRU to 64K

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

 



From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

ppp_sync_ioctl allows setting device MRU, but does not sanity check
this input.

Limit to a sane upper bound of 64KB.

No implementation I could find generates larger than 64KB frames.
RFC 2823 mentions an upper bound of PPP over SDL of 64KB based on the
16-bit length field. Other protocols will be smaller, such as PPPoE
(9KB jumbo frame) and PPPoA (18190 maximum CPCS-SDU size, RFC 2364).
PPTP and L2TP encapsulate in IP.

Syzbot managed to trigger alloc warning in __alloc_pages:

	if (WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order > MAX_ORDER, gfp))

    WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 37 at mm/page_alloc.c:4544 __alloc_pages+0x3ab/0x4a0 mm/page_alloc.c:4544

With call

    ioctl$PPPIOCSMRU1(r1, 0x40047452, &(0x7f0000000100)=0x5e6417a8)

Similar code exists in other drivers that implement ppp_channel_ops
ioctl PPPIOCSMRU. Those might also be in scope. Notably excluded from
this are pppol2tp_ioctl and pppoe_ioctl.

This code goes back to the start of git history.
