[PATCH 5.4 / 5.10] firmware: arm_scmi: Harden accesses to the reset domains

[PATCH 5.4 / 5.10] firmware: arm_scmi: Harden accesses to the reset domains

[Dominique Martinet]

From: Cristian Marussi <cristian.marussi@arm.com>

[ Upstream commit e9076ffbcaed5da6c182b144ef9f6e24554af268 ]

Accessing reset domains descriptors by the index upon the SCMI drivers
requests through the SCMI reset operations interface can potentially
lead to out-of-bound violations if the SCMI driver misbehave.

Add an internal consistency check before any such domains descriptors
accesses.

This is the backport I promised for CVE-2022-48655[1]
[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/Zj4t4q_w6gqzdvhz@codewreck.org

The 'pi' variable declaration context just changed a bit
(handle->reset_priv -> ph->get_priv(ph)) but the patch is
otherwise fine as is.
(I've also checked that num_domains is properly initialized at module
init time and this part of the code hasn't changed until 5.15, so it
should be safe to use this previously unused field)

This same patch applies cleanly to both 5.4.275 and 5.10.216.

Thanks!

The backport looks good and thanks for doing that. Sometimes since we
know all the users are in the kernel, we tend to ignore the facts that
they need to be backport as this was considered as theoretical issue when
we pushed the fix. We try to keep that in mind and add fixes tag more
carefully in the future. Thanks for your effort and bring this to our
attention.
