Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/sched: fix null-ptr-deref in init entity<br />
<br />
The bug can be triggered by sending an amdgpu_cs_wait_ioctl<br />
to the AMDGPU DRM driver on any ASICs with valid context.<br />
The bug was reported by Joonkyo Jung .<br />
For example the following code:<br />
<br />
static void Syzkaller2(int fd)<br />
{<br />
union drm_amdgpu_ctx arg1;<br />
union drm_amdgpu_wait_cs arg2;<br />
<br />
arg1.in.op = AMDGPU_CTX_OP_ALLOC_CTX;<br />
ret = drmIoctl(fd, 0x140106442 /* amdgpu_ctx_ioctl */, &arg1);<br />
<br />
arg2.in.handle = 0x0;<br />
arg2.in.timeout = 0x2000000000000;<br />
arg2.in.ip_type = AMD_IP_VPE /* 0x9 */;<br />
arg2->in.ip_instance = 0x0;<br />
arg2.in.ring = 0x0;<br />
arg2.in.ctx_id = arg1.out.alloc.ctx_id;<br />
<br />
drmIoctl(fd, 0xc0206449 /* AMDGPU_WAIT_CS * /, &arg2);<br />
}<br />
<br />
The ioctl AMDGPU_WAIT_CS without previously submitted job could be assumed that<br />
the error should be returned, but the following commit 1decbf6bb0b4dc56c9da6c5e57b994ebfc2be3aa<br />
modified the logic and allowed to have sched_rq equal to NULL.<br />
<br />
As a result when there is no job the ioctl AMDGPU_WAIT_CS returns success.<br />
The change fixes null-ptr-deref in init entity and the stack below demonstrates<br />
the error condition:<br />
