[PATCH 4.18 073/235] arm64: fix possible spectre-v1 write in ptrace_hbp_set_event()

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

 



4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 14d6e289a89780377f8bb09de8926d3c62d763cd ]

It's possible for userspace to control idx. Sanitize idx when using it
as an array index, to inhibit the potential spectre-v1 write gadget.

Found by smatch.
