Subject: [PATCH net 03/14] can: bittiming: fix divide-by-zero in can_calc_bittiming()
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 14:02:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826121036.2706424-4-mkl@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826121036.2706424-1-mkl@pengutronix.de>

can_calc_bittiming() scans the possible time segment combinations and
computes the prescaler for each of them as:
brp = priv->clock.freq / (tsegall * bt->bitrate)
bt->bitrate is supplied by userspace via IFLA_CAN_BITTIMING and
tsegall * bt->bitrate is a 32 bit multiplication, so the product wraps
to zero as soon as bt->bitrate carries enough factors of two for the
tsegall values walked by the loop. The division then faults:
Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI
RIP: 0010:can_calc_bittiming+0x32e/0xcc0
Call Trace:
can_changelink+0x8ba/0x2060
__rtnl_newlink+0x1013/0x18a0
rtnl_newlink+0x6b/0xa0
rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x6f9/0xb70
netlink_rcv_skb+0x11f/0x350
netlink_unicast+0x5f5/0x860
netlink_sendmsg+0x70a/0xba0
This does not require an absurd bitrate. With the segment limits of a
typical controller tsegall reaches 256, so a bitrate of 16777216 is
already enough to wrap the product, and that value is below the
20 Mbit/s CAN XL data bitrate ceiling. Any CAN driver providing a
bittiming_const is affected; reproduced on dummy_can. Triggering it
needs CAP_NET_ADMIN in the netns owning the device.
priv->bitrate_max cannot guard against this: it is populated from the
optional "max-bitrate" device tree property, so it is zero for most
drivers, and can_changelink() only consults it after can_get_bittiming()
has already returned.
Compute the product with mul_u32_u32(), as can_fixup_bittiming() already
does for bt->brp * NSEC_PER_SEC, and divide with div64_u64(). div_u64()
cannot be used here because its divisor is a u32, which would truncate
the product back to the faulting value.
