[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: cpuid: Fix read/write out-of-bounds vulnerability in cpuid emulation

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

 



From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If "i" is the last element in the vcpu->arch.cpuid_entries[] array, it 
potentially can be exploited the vulnerability. this will out-of-bounds 
read and write the unused memory in host OS.

As Paolo pointed:

>> -			ej->flags |= KVM_CPUID_FLAG_STATE_READ_NEXT;

>        struct x86_emulate_ctxt emulate_ctxt;  /* 16-byte aligned */

This patch fixes it by modding the index to avoid the out-of-bounds. At 
the worst case, i == j and ej->function == e->function, the loop can bail
out.
