Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> NFSv4.2: fix nfs4_listxattr kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102<br /> <br /> A call to listxattr() with a buffer size = 0 returns the actual<br /> size of the buffer needed for a subsequent call. When size &gt; 0,<br /> nfs4_listxattr() does not return an error because either<br /> generic_listxattr() or nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_label() consumes<br /> exactly all the bytes then size is 0 when calling<br /> nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_user() which then triggers the following<br /> kernel BUG:<br /> <br /> [ 99.403778] kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102!<br /> [ 99.404063] Internal error: Oops - BUG: 00000000f2000800 [#1] SMP<br /> [ 99.408463] CPU: 0 PID: 3310 Comm: python3 Not tainted 6.6.0-61.fc40.aarch64 #1<br /> [ 99.415827] Call trace:<br /> [ 99.415985] usercopy_abort+0x70/0xa0<br /> [ 99.416227] __check_heap_object+0x134/0x158<br /> [ 99.416505] check_heap_object+0x150/0x188<br /> [ 99.416696] __check_object_size.part.0+0x78/0x168<br /> [ 99.416886] __check_object_size+0x28/0x40<br /> [ 99.417078] listxattr+0x8c/0x120<br /> [ 99.417252] path_listxattr+0x78/0xe0<br /> [ 99.417476] __arm64_sys_listxattr+0x28/0x40<br /> [ 99.417723] invoke_syscall+0x78/0x100<br /> [ 99.417929] el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x48/0xf0<br /> [ 99.418186] do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38<br /> [ 99.418376] el0_svc+0x3c/0x110<br /> [ 99.418554] el0t_64_sync_handler+0x120/0x130<br /> [ 99.418788] el0t_64_sync+0x194/0x198<br /> [ 99.418994] Code: aa0003e3 d000a3e0 91310000 97f49bdb (d4210000)<br /> <br /> Issue is reproduced when generic_listxattr() returns &amp;#39;system.nfs4_acl&amp;#39;,<br /> thus calling lisxattr() with size = 16 will trigger the bug.<br /> <br /> Add check on nfs4_listxattr() to return ERANGE error when it is<br /> called with size &gt; 0 and the return value is greater than size.
