Subject: [PATCH v6 4/6] KVM: arm64: Fix bounds checking in do_ffa_mem_reclaim()
Date: Wed, 27 May 2026 15:02:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260527150236.1978655-5-smostafa@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260527150236.1978655-1-smostafa@google.com>

Sashiko (locally) reports out of bound write possiblity if SPMD
returns an invalid data.

While SPMD is considered trusted, pKVM does some basic checks,
for offset to be less than or equal len.

However, that is incorrect as even if the offset is smaller than
len pKVM can still access out of bound memory in the next
ffa_host_unshare_ranges().

Split this check into 2:
1- Check that the fixed portion of the descriptor fits.
2- After getting reg, check the variable array size addr_range_cnt
   fits.

Also, drop the WARN_ONs as that will panic the kernel and in the
next checks there are no WARNs, so that makes it consistent.

Fixes: 0a9f15fd5674 ("KVM: arm64: pkvm: Add support for fragmented FF-A descriptors")
