https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188941 Bug ID: 188941 Summary: Function beiscsi_create_cqs() may return improper value when the call to pci_alloc_consistent() fails, which may result in use-after-free Product: SCSI Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: linux-4.9-rc6 Hardware: All OS: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Other Assignee: scsi_drivers-other@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: bianpan2010@xxxxxxxxxx Regression: No Function pci_alloc_consistent() returns a NULL pointer if there is no enough memory. In function beiscsi_create_cqs() defined in file drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c, function pci_alloc_consistent() is called and its return value is checked against NULL (at line 3116). If the return value is NULL, the control flow will jump to label "create_cq_error", frees allocated memory and returns variable ret. Because after the first execution of the loop the value of ret must be 0 (see the check statement of ret at line 3129), the return value will be 0 (indicates success) if pci_alloc_consistent() fails during the second or after repeats of the loop body. In this case, the freed memory may be used or freed again in the callers of beiscsi_create_cqs(). I think it is better to assign "-ENOMEM" when the call pci_alloc_consistent() fails. Codes and comments related to this bug are summarised as follows. beiscsi_create_cqs @@ drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c 3092 static int beiscsi_create_cqs(struct beiscsi_hba *phba, 3093 struct hwi_context_memory *phwi_context) 3094 { ... 3100 int ret = -ENOMEM; ... 3106 for (i = 0; i < phba->num_cpus; i++) { 3107 cq = &phwi_context->be_cq[i]; 3108 eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[i].q; 3109 pbe_eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[i]; 3110 pbe_eq->cq = cq; 3111 pbe_eq->phba = phba; 3112 mem = &cq->dma_mem; 3113 cq_vaddress = pci_alloc_consistent(phba->pcidev, 3114 num_cq_pages * PAGE_SIZE, 3115 &paddr); 3116 if (!cq_vaddress) // ret may takes value 0.
