[PATCH 0/2] Fixes on top of CVE-2014-8159 kernel: infiniband: uverbs: unprotected physical memory access

[Yann Droneaud]

Hi,

Please find one patch to prevent a possible issue partially
addressed by commit 8494057ab5e4 ("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer
overflow in ib_umem_get address arithmetic") (see discussions
in [1]) and another one to add back the possibility of registering
memory mapped at 0 (which is probably not something to be allowed,
but it's not up to ib_umem_get() to prevent it).

 memory access"

[PATCH 1/2] IB/core: disallow registering 0-sized memory region

[Yann Droneaud]

If ib_umem_get() is called with a size equal to 0 and an
non-page aligned address, one page will be pinned and a
0-sized umem will be returned to the caller.

This should not be allowed: it's not expected for a memory
region to have a size equal to 0.

This patch adds a check to explicitly refuse to register
a 0-sized region.

Additionally, it updates check added in commit 8494057ab5e4
("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow in ib_umem_get
address arithmetic") to not care about 0-sized region:
it would had catched 0-sized region only if address was
already page aligned.

[PATCH 2/2] IB/core: don't disallow registering region starting at 0x0

[Yann Droneaud]

In a call to ib_umem_get(), if address is 0x0 and size is
already page aligned, check added in commit 8494057ab5e4
("IB/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow in ib_umem_get address
arithmetic") will refuse to register a memory region that
could otherwise be valid (provided vm.mmap_min_addr sysctl
and mmap_low_allowed SELinux knobs allow userspace to map
something at address 0x0).

This patch allows back such registration: ib_umem_get()
should probably don't care of the base address provided it
can be pinned with get_user_pages().
