Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
EFI/CPER: don&#39;t go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer<br />
<br />
There&#39;s a logic inside GHES/CPER to detect if the section_length<br />
is too small, but it doesn&#39;t detect if it is too big.<br />
<br />
Currently, if the firmware receives an ARM processor CPER record<br />
stating that a section length is big, kernel will blindly trust<br />
section_length, producing a very long dump. For instance, a 67<br />
bytes record with ERR_INFO_NUM set 46198 and section length<br />
set to 854918320 would dump a lot of data going a way past the<br />
firmware memory-mapped area.<br />
<br />
Fix it by adding a logic to prevent it to go past the buffer<br />
if ERR_INFO_NUM is too big, making it report instead:<br />
<br />
[Hardware Error]: Hardware error from APEI Generic Hardware Error Source: 1<br />
[Hardware Error]: event severity: recoverable<br />
[Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: recoverable<br />
[Hardware Error]: section_type: ARM processor error<br />
[Hardware Error]: MIDR: 0xff304b2f8476870a<br />
[Hardware Error]: section length: 854918320, CPER size: 67<br />
[Hardware Error]: section length is too big<br />
[Hardware Error]: firmware-generated error record is incorrect<br />
[Hardware Error]: ERR_INFO_NUM is 46198<br />
