This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled module: harden ELF info handling to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: module-harden-elf-info-handling.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 945b3a59594d673e661159700a5c799dc2b0ea01 Author: Frank van der Linden <fllinden@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jan 14 22:21:46 2021 +0000 module: harden ELF info handling [ Upstream commit ec2a29593c83ed71a7f16e3243941ebfcf75fdf6 ] 5fdc7db644 ("module: setup load info before module_sig_check()") moved the ELF setup, so that it was done before the signature check. This made the module name available to signature error messages. However, the checks for ELF correctness in setup_load_info are not sufficient to prevent bad memory references due to corrupted offset fields, indices, etc. So, there's a regression in behavior here: a corrupt and unsigned (or badly signed) module, which might previously have been rejected immediately, can now cause an oops/crash. Harden ELF handling for module loading by doing the following: - Move the signature check back up so that it comes before ELF initialization. It's best to do the signature check to see if we can trust the module, before using the ELF structures inside it. This also makes checks against info->len more accurate again, as this field will be reduced by the length of the signature in mod_check_sig(). The module name is now once again not available for error messages during the signature check, but that seems like a fair tradeoff. - Check if sections have offset / size fields that at least don't exceed the length of the module. - Check if sections have section name offsets that don't fall outside the section name table. - Add a few other sanity checks against invalid section indices, etc. This is not an exhaustive consistency check, but the idea is to at least get through the signature and blacklist checks without crashing because of corrupted ELF info, and to error out gracefully for most issues that would have caused problems later on.
