Subject: [PATCH 5.10 45/57] libceph: fix OOB read in decode_watchers() via missing bounds check
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 15:27:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825132543.099548855@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825132541.342390421@linuxfoundation.org>

5.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Pavitra Jha <jhapavitra98@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 00ead17c7de137a692edee59f2772e6af687e8eb ]

ceph_start_decoding() validates that struct_len bytes remain in the
buffer after the encoding header, but accepts struct_len=0 as valid:
ceph_decode_need(p, end, 0, bad) always passes. When a malicious or
compromised OSD sends an obj_list_watch_response_t reply with
struct_len=0, ceph_start_decoding() returns success with p == end,
leaving zero bytes guaranteed for subsequent reads.

The immediately following ceph_decode_32(p) in decode_watchers() has
no preceding bounds check. With p == end this is a 4-byte read past
the validated buffer boundary. The garbage value is then passed
directly to kzalloc_objs() as the watcher count.

The sibling function decode_watcher() already uses the safe variants
(ceph_decode_copy_safe, ceph_decode_64_safe, ceph_decode_skip_32)
after its own ceph_start_decoding() call. decode_watchers() is the
only site that uses the bare variant, confirming an oversight.

Fix by replacing ceph_decode_32(p) with ceph_decode_32_safe(p, end,
*num_watchers, bad), consistent with the established pattern.

Attacker model: a malicious or compromised OSD in a multi-tenant Ceph
deployment (e.g. cloud) can trigger this against any kernel client
that calls CEPH_OSD_OP_LIST_WATCHERS, without any further privileges
beyond OSD session establishment.
