Subject: [PATCH v4] netdevsim: Zero-initialize memory for new map's value in function nsim_bpf_map_alloc
Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2021 19:15:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211215111530.72103-1-tcs.kernel@gmail.com> (raw)

Zero-initialize memory for new map's value in function nsim_bpf_map_alloc
since it may cause a potential kernel information leak issue, as follows:
1. nsim_bpf_map_alloc calls nsim_map_alloc_elem to allocate elements for 
a new map.
2. nsim_map_alloc_elem uses kmalloc to allocate map's value, but doesn't
zero it.
3. A user application can use IOCTL BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM to get specific
element's information in the map.
4. The kernel function map_lookup_elem will call bpf_map_copy_value to get
the information allocated at step-2, then use copy_to_user to copy to the
user buffer.
This can only leak information for an array map.

Fixes: 395cacb5f1a0 ("netdevsim: bpf: support fake map offload")
