[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 4/5] tee: Prevent size calculation wraparound on 32-bit kernels

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 39bb67edcc582b3b386a9ec983da67fa8a10ec03 ]

The current code around TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE() is a bit wrong on
32-bit kernels: Multiplying a user-provided 32-bit value with the
size of a structure can wrap around on such platforms.

Fix it by using saturating arithmetic for the size calculation.

This has no security consequences because, in all users of
TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(), the subsequent kcalloc() implicitly checks
for wrapping.

**YES** This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's
my extensive analysis: ## Vulnerability Analysis The commit fixes a real
integer overflow vulnerability in the TEE (Trusted Execution
Environment) subsystem on 32-bit kernels. The issue occurs in the
`TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE()` macro defined as: ```c #define
TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(x) (sizeof(struct tee_param) * (x)) ``` Where
`struct tee_ioctl_param` is 32 bytes (4 × 8-byte fields). On 32-bit
systems, when a user provides a large `num_params` value, the
multiplication `32 * num_params` can wrap around, potentially bypassing
buffer length validation checks. ## Specific Vulnerable Code Locations
The vulnerable pattern appears in 4 locations in
`drivers/tee/tee_core.c`: 1. **Line 490**: `tee_ioctl_open_session()` -
`sizeof(arg) + TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(arg.num_params) != buf.buf_len` 2.
**Line 568**: `tee_ioctl_invoke()` - `sizeof(arg) +
TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(arg.num_params) != buf.buf_len` 3. **Line 702**:
`tee_ioctl_supp_recv()` - `sizeof(*uarg) +
TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(num_params) != buf.buf_len` 4. **Line 801**:
`tee_ioctl_supp_send()` - `sizeof(*uarg) +
TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(num_params) > buf.buf_len` ## Attack Scenario On
32-bit systems, if `num_params = 0x08000000` (134,217,728), then: -
`TEE_IOCTL_PARAM_SIZE(0x08000000) = 32 * 0x08000000 = 0x100000000` -
This wraps to `0x00000000` on 32-bit systems - The size validation
`sizeof(arg) + 0 != buf.buf_len` could be bypassed - Subsequent
`kcalloc()` would allocate a huge buffer, but the size calculations
would be wrong ## Why This Should Be Backported **Matches "YES" backport
criteria from similar commits:** 1. **Security Fix**: Like Similar
Commit #2 (rtl8188eu security hole) and #4 (gup_benchmark integer
overflow), this prevents user-controlled integer overflow that could
lead to memory corruption. 2. **Small, Contained Change**: The fix uses
the kernel's standard `size_add()` and `size_mul()` helpers from
`linux/overflow.h` - exactly like Similar Commit #3 which was noted as
using `size_add()` for similar protection. 3. **Critical Subsystem**:
TEE handles sensitive cryptographic operations and trusted applications,
making security fixes here particularly important. 4. **Low Regression
Risk**: The fix only adds overflow protection without changing
functionality. The `size_mul()` and `size_add()` functions are well-
tested kernel overflow helpers. 5. **User-Controllable Input**: The
`num_params` value comes directly from user space through ioctl calls,
making this a user-triggerable condition. 6. **Clear Security Impact**:
While the commit states "no security consequences because kcalloc()
implicitly checks for wrapping," this is defense-in-depth - the size
validation should not rely on downstream allocation checks. The fix
pattern exactly matches Similar Commit #4 (mm/gup_benchmark.c) which was
backported for preventing integer overflow in size calculations with
user-provided values. This commit follows the same security principle
and uses the same overflow-safe arithmetic helpers that the kernel has
standardized on for these scenarios.
