Subject: [PATCH v3 09/10] ACPI: APEI: GHES: Bound AER info copy and sanitize software metadata
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 09:16:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260717161647.1493259-10-dave.jiang@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260717161647.1493259-1-dave.jiang@intel.com>

sashiko-bot flagged that ghes_handle_aer() has the same unvalidated
AER buffer handling plus a 4-byte over-read.

ghes_handle_aer() copies sizeof(struct aer_capability_regs) from the
fixed 96-byte pcie_err->aer_info, reading past the section since the
struct is larger. It also fills the software-only header_len and flit
fields of the embedded struct pcie_tlp_log from raw firmware bytes;
pcie_print_tlp_log() uses them to bound a loop over dw[], so a large
value walks past the array. There is also no check that the section can
hold a struct cper_sec_pcie.

Validate error_data_length, zero the destination, bound the copy to the
96-byte source, and clear header_len and flit. This mirrors the
extlog_print_pcie() fix.

Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260714231835.303081-1-dave.jiang@intel.com?part=3
Fixes: 7e077e6707b3 ("PCI/ERR: Handle TLP Log in Flit mode")
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8

v3:
- New patch. sashiko's review of v2 flagged the same unvalidated AER
  buffer handling in ghes_handle_aer() that v2 fixed for extlog.
