Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ice: reject out-of-range ptype in ice_parser_profile_init<br />
<br />
set_bit(rslt->ptype, prof->ptypes) operates on a DECLARE_BITMAP of<br />
ICE_FLOW_PTYPE_MAX (1024) bits. Nothing prevents a malicious VF from<br />
providing ptype >= 1024 through VIRTCHNL, resulting in a write past<br />
the end of the bitmap and a kernel page fault.<br />
<br />
Reproduced with a custom kernel module injecting a crafted<br />
VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_RSS_CFG on E810-C QSFP (8086:1592),<br />
FW 4.91 0x800214af 1.3909.0, ICE COMMS DDP 1.3.53.0,<br />
kernel 7.1.0-rc1.<br />
<br />
crash_parser: ice_parser_profile_init @ ffffffffc0d61b60<br />
crash_parser: setting ptype=0xffff (max valid=1023)<br />
crash_parser: calling ice_parser_profile_init -- expect OOB crash!<br />
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000<br />
Oops: Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI<br />
