https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34522 Summary: Error-valued pointer overwrite in SCSI Product: SCSI Drivers Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.38.3 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: Other AssignedTo: scsi_drivers-other@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: crubio@xxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No We have statically analyzed SCSI, the VFS and the Memory Management module to find error-valued pointers that are overwritten without first being checked for errors. We have found one potential overwrite: drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:639: overwriting potential non-tentative unchecked error in variable "*bflags", which may contain one of the following error codes: *EINVAL Here is a sample trace that illustrates how the overwrite might occur: include/linux/err.h:24: an unchecked error may be returned drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"cabs2cil_" receives an error from function "ERR_PTR" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp___8" receives an error from "cabs2cil_" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp___8" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp" receives an error from "tmp___8" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp___7" receives an error from "tmp" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268:"tmp___7" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:268: an unchecked error may be returned drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:477:"devinfo_table" receives an error from function "scsi_devinfo_lookup_by_key" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:479:"devinfo_table" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480:"devinfo_table" may have an unchecked error include/linux/err.h:29: an unchecked error may be returned drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480:"cabs2cil____0" receives an error from function "PTR_ERR" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480:"tmp___19" receives an error from "cabs2cil____0" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480:"tmp___17" receives an error from "tmp___19" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480:"tmp___7" receives an error from "tmp___17" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:480: an unchecked error may be returned drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:451:"tmp___7" receives an error from function "scsi_get_device_flags_keyed" drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c:451: an unchecked error may be returned drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:639:"*bflags" receives an error from function "scsi_get_device_flags" drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:644:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:645:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:646:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:655:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:656:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:657:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:658:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:573:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:578:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:581:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:582:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:583:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:585:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:587:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:592:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:596:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:603:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:605:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:609:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:578:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:581:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:582:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:583:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:585:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:587:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:592:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:596:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:603:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:620:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:623:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:624:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:625:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:626:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:628:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:629:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:630:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:639:"*bflags" may have an unchecked error drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:639: overwriting potential non-tentative unchecked error in variable "*bflags" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
