Subject: [PATCH v2] vhost-scsi: do not count PI bytes in the data length
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 09:48:03 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011014803.100454-1-physicalmtea@gmail.com> (raw)
vhost_scsi_handle_vq() moves pi_bytesout or pi_bytesin into the
protection sgl and subtracts those bytes from exp_data_len. The length
passed to TCM is still exp_data_len + prot_bytes.
prot_bytes comes from virtio_scsi_cmd_req_pi. With
VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI negotiated, vhost reads that header and does not
check that the CDB is a READ or WRITE. sbc_check_prot() replaces
data_length from the CDB only when the protect field is non-zero.
target_cmd_size_check() leaves a write's data_length unchanged when the
CDB size is smaller, so a command that does not get that replacement
keeps a data_length larger than the data sgl.
The KASAN report is a MODE SELECT whose header had pi_bytesout set.
The data sgl held only the parameter list. spc_emulate_modeselect()
walked data_length and read the next physical page.
Pass the data sgl length. Protected READ and WRITE still take their
length from the CDB in sbc_check_prot().
KASAN reports:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in spc_emulate_modeselect+0x145/0x380 [target_core_mod]

v2:
- Drop the claim that target used to subtract prot_length.
9f977ef7b671 cites 14ef9200, which is not in the tree
- prot_bytes comes from virtio_scsi_cmd_req_pi
