Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
RDMA/ionic: bound node_desc sysfs read with %.64s<br />
<br />
node_desc[64] in struct ib_device is not guaranteed to be NUL-<br />
terminated. The core IB sysfs handler uses "%.64s" for exactly this<br />
reason (drivers/infiniband/core/sysfs.c:1307), since node_desc_store()<br />
performs a raw memcpy of up to IB_DEVICE_NODE_DESC_MAX bytes with no NUL<br />
termination:<br />
<br />
memcpy(desc.node_desc, buf, min_t(int, count, IB_DEVICE_NODE_DESC_MAX));<br />
<br />
If exactly 64 bytes are written via the node_desc sysfs file, the array<br />
contains no NUL byte. The ionic hca_type_show() handler uses unbounded<br />
"%s" and will read past the end of node_desc into adjacent fields of<br />
struct ib_device until it encounters a NUL.<br />
<br />
ionic supports IB_DEVICE_MODIFY_NODE_DESC, so this is triggerable by<br />
userspace.<br />
<br />
Match the core handler and bound the format specifier.
