Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
bpf, arm64: Clear prog->jited_len along prog->jited<br />
<br />
syzbot reported an illegal copy_to_user() attempt<br />
from bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() [1]<br />
<br />
There was no repro yet on this bug, but I think<br />
that commit 0aef499f3172 ("mm/usercopy: Detect vmalloc overruns")<br />
is exposing a prior bug in bpf arm64.<br />
<br />
bpf_prog_get_info_by_fd() looks at prog->jited_len<br />
to determine if the JIT image can be copied out to user space.<br />
<br />
My theory is that syzbot managed to get a prog where prog->jited_len<br />
has been set to 43, while prog->bpf_func has ben cleared.<br />
<br />
It is not clear why copy_to_user(uinsns, NULL, ulen) is triggering<br />
this particular warning.<br />
<br />
I thought find_vma_area(NULL) would not find a vm_struct.<br />
As we do not hold vmap_area_lock spinlock, it might be possible<br />
that the found vm_struct was garbage.<br />
<br />
