Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.0] virtio-net: fix guest-triggerable buffer overrun
Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2014 15:18:08 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1397218574-25058-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> (raw)

When VM guest programs multicast addresses for
a virtio net card, it supplies a 32 bit
entries counter for the number of addresses.
These addresses are read into tail portion of
a fixed macs array which has size MAC_TABLE_ENTRIES,
at offset equal to in_use.

To avoid overflow of this array by guest, qemu attempts
to test the size as follows:
-    if (in_use + mac_data.entries <= MAC_TABLE_ENTRIES) {

however, as mac_data.entries is uint32_t, this sum
can overflow, e.g. if in_use is 1 and mac_data.entries
is 0xffffffff then in_use + mac_data.entries will be 0.

Qemu will then read guest supplied buffer into this
memory, overflowing buffer on heap.

CVE-2014-0150

Passed basic tests.
CVE fix so pick this up for -rc3?
