[ Kees, could we make copy_from_user() just fail if size is more than INT_MAX? ] Hello Julian Wiedmann, The patch d4c08afafa04: "s390/qeth: streamline SNMP cmd code" from Jun 27, 2019, leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c:4381 qeth_snmp_command() error: check that 'req_len' is capped drivers/s390/net/qeth_core_main.c 4355 static int qeth_snmp_command(struct qeth_card *card, char __user *udata) 4356 { 4357 struct qeth_snmp_ureq __user *ureq; 4358 struct qeth_cmd_buffer *iob; 4359 unsigned int req_len; 4360 struct qeth_arp_query_info qinfo = {0, }; 4361 int rc = 0; 4362 4363 QETH_CARD_TEXT(card, 3, "snmpcmd"); 4364 4365 if (IS_VM_NIC(card)) 4366 return -EOPNOTSUPP; 4367 4368 if ((!qeth_adp_supported(card, IPA_SETADP_SET_SNMP_CONTROL)) && 4369 IS_LAYER3(card)) 4370 return -EOPNOTSUPP; 4371 4372 ureq = (struct qeth_snmp_ureq __user *) udata; 4373 if (get_user(qinfo.udata_len, &ureq->hdr.data_len) || 4374 get_user(req_len, &ureq->hdr.req_len)) 4375 return -EFAULT; 4376 4377 iob = qeth_get_adapter_cmd(card, IPA_SETADP_SET_SNMP_CONTROL, req_len); The problem is that qeth_get_adapter_cmd() doesn't guard against integer overflows if reg_len is >= UINT_MAX - offsetof(struct qeth_ipacmd_setadpparms, data)). 4378 if (!iob) 4379 return -ENOMEM; 4380 4381 if (copy_from_user(&__ipa_cmd(iob)->data.setadapterparms.data.snmp, 4382 &ureq->cmd, req_len)) { So then this copy_from_user() could overflow. The original code had a similar problem but it only affect 32 bit systems. I'm not sure what is a good upper bound for req_len. 4383 qeth_put_cmd(iob); 4384 return -EFAULT; 4385 } 4386 4387 qinfo.udata = kzalloc(qinfo.udata_len, GFP_KERNEL); regards, dan carpenter
