Subject: MMIO region out-of-bounds access in bnx2x_init_shmem()
Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2025 19:41:14 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <987ba865-3517-4e2e-8e32-6e46482d019a@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
It seems there's an issue in bnx2x_init_shmem() that allows an MMIO access
address offset to be set directly from the device without either range check or
filtering, potentially leading to an out-of-bounds MMIO region access.
In bnx2x_init_shmem(), bp->common.shmem_base is assigned from an MMIO read:
bp->common.shmem_base = REG_RD(bp, MISC_REG_SHARED_MEM_ADDR);
This shmem_base value is then used to calculate an address for another MMIO
read:
if (bp->common.shmem_base) {
val = SHMEM_RD(bp, validity_map[BP_PORT(bp)]); // Out-of-bounds access here
/*
in bnx2x.h,
#define SHMEM_ADDR(bp, field) (bp->common.shmem_base + \
offsetof(struct shmem_region, field))
#define SHMEM_RD(bp, field) REG_RD(bp, SHMEM_ADDR(bp, field))
*/
If shmem_base was set with an unexpected large value, causing an MMIO region
out-of-bounds read access.
Futhermore, I think similar issue could occur also at shmem2_base case:
// in bnx2x_get_common_hwinfo()
bp->common.shmem2_base = REG_RD(bp, (BP_PATH(bp) ?
MISC_REG_GENERIC_CR_1 :
MISC_REG_GENERIC_CR_0));
...
if (SHMEM2_RD(bp, size) >
(u32)offsetof(struct shmem2_region, lfa_host_addr[BP_PORT(bp)]))
It seems that a range check patch is needed for shmem_base and shmem2_base, but
I am not entirely sure what the correct range should be.
Could you check this?
Best regards,
Kyungwook Boo
