Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: scan: Fix a Hyper-V Linux VM panic caused by buffer overflow
Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2020 20:08:26 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201218040826.57203-1-decui@microsoft.com> (raw)

Linux VM on Hyper-V crashes with the latest mainline:

[    4.069624] detected buffer overflow in strcpy
[    4.077733] kernel BUG at lib/string.c:1149!
..
[    4.085819] RIP: 0010:fortify_panic+0xf/0x11

[    4.085819]  kernel_init_freeable+0x1ab/0x1f4

This is because of the recent buffer overflow detection in the
commit 6a39e62abbaf ("lib: string.h: detect intra-object overflow in fortified string functions")

Here acpi_device_bus_id->bus_id can only hold 14 characters, while the
the acpi_device_hid(device) returns a 22-char string
"HYPER_V_GEN_COUNTER_V1".

Per ACPI Spec v6.2, Section 6.1.5 _HID (Hardware ID), if the ID is a
string, it must be of the form AAA#### or NNNN####, i.e. 7 chars or 8
chars.

The field bus_id in struct acpi_device_bus_id was originally defined as
char bus_id[9], and later was enlarged to char bus_id[15] in 2007 in the
commit bb0958544f3c ("ACPI: use more understandable bus_id for ACPI devices")

It looks like so far an ID string of >=15 chars is only seen in the guest
BIOS/firmware by Hyper-V, and AFAIK the ID string "HYPER_V_GEN_COUNTER_V1"
is never used by Linux VM on Hyper-V, so let's just truncate the string to
fix the panic.
