Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/rxe: bound the WQE opcode before indexing rxe_wr_opcode_info[]
Date: Thu,  1 Oct 2026 03:02:21 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930180221.2497908-1-ays511.kr@gmail.com> (raw)

wr_opcode_mask() indexes the global rxe_wr_opcode_info[] array with
a caller-supplied opcode and no bounds check. For a user QP the WQE
comes from an mmap'd SQ ring, so wqe->wr.opcode is an
attacker-controlled __u32 read back by the requester
(req_next_wqe() -> rxe_requester()); rxe_post_send() takes the
qp->is_user branch and never runs validate_send_wr(), whose only
opcode check is itself !wr_opcode_mask() (it indexes before it
checks). rxe_wr_opcode_info[] has entries only up to IB_WR_REG_MR,
so an out-of-range opcode reads out of bounds and the result is used
as a mask and dereferenced; observed as a KASAN global-out-of-bounds
"Read of size 4" and a wild-pointer oops.

Return a zero mask for an out-of-range opcode, matching how
validate_send_wr() already treats a zero mask (an invalid WR), so no
path indexes the array out of bounds.

Fixes: 8700e3e7c485 ("Soft RoCE driver")

Notes (not part of the commit):
Reproduced on a KASAN x86-64 build of 7.3-rc4 as uid 1000. Present unchanged
in mainline 551c722f4080 (2026-09-29) and rdma for-next. Compile-tested
(KASAN+RDMA_RXE), not runtime-tested. Found through manual review; per
security-bugs.rst this is public and a reproducer can be shared on request.
IB_WR_REG_MR is the highest index the array initializes; an
ARRAY_SIZE(rxe_wr_opcode_info) bound would be equivalent but the array is
extern to this header.
