Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y 2/2] tracing: Limit access to parser->buffer when trace_get_user failed
Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2025 09:49:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250824134936.2918494-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250824134936.2918494-1-sashal@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 6a909ea83f226803ea0e718f6e88613df9234d58 ]

When the length of the string written to set_ftrace_filter exceeds
FTRACE_BUFF_MAX, the following KASAN alarm will be triggered:

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in strsep+0x18c/0x1b0
Read of size 1 at addr ffff0000d00bd5ba by task ash/165

CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 165 Comm: ash Not tainted 6.16.0-g6bcdbd62bd56-dirty
Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
Call trace:

 el0_svc+0xec/0xf0
 el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa0/0xe8
 el0t_64_sync+0x1ac/0x1b0

The reason is that trace_get_user will fail when processing a string
longer than FTRACE_BUFF_MAX, but not set the end of parser->buffer to 0.
Then an OOB access will be triggered in ftrace_regex_release->
ftrace_process_regex->strsep->strpbrk. We can solve this problem by
limiting access to parser->buffer when trace_get_user failed.
