Subject: [PATCH v4 4/6] common/cnxk: fix buffer overflow in reassembly SA setup
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2026 14:44:11 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260119224553.226243-5-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260119224553.226243-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
The nix_inl_reass_inb_sa_tbl_setup() function initializes inb_sa_sz
to 1 byte, then allocates a buffer of that size. However, the buffer
is subsequently passed to roc_ow_reass_inb_sa_init() which performs:
memset(sa, 0, sizeof(struct roc_ow_ipsec_inb_sa));
This writes 808 bytes into a 1-byte allocation, causing heap corruption.
This bug was detected by GCC's -Wstringop-overflow warning when
building with LTO, which enables cross-compilation-unit inlining
and allows the compiler to track the allocation size through to
the memset call.
Fix by initializing inb_sa_sz to ROC_NIX_INL_OW_IPSEC_INB_SA_SZ,
which is the standard macro used elsewhere in this file for OW
(Sobek) inbound SA allocations.
Bugzilla ID: 1513
Fixes: fc9a711b5c8f ("common/cnxk: add NIX inline reassembly profile config")
