Subject: [PATCH 4.14 09/11] KVM: do not allow mapping valid but non-reference-counted pages
Date: Fri, 6 Aug 2021 10:14:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210806081110.814801553@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210806081110.511221879@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>
commit f8be156be163a052a067306417cd0ff679068c97 upstream.
It's possible to create a region which maps valid but non-refcounted
pages (e.g., tail pages of non-compound higher order allocations). These
host pages can then be returned by gfn_to_page, gfn_to_pfn, etc., family
of APIs, which take a reference to the page, which takes it from 0 to 1.
When the reference is dropped, this will free the page incorrectly.
Fix this by only taking a reference on valid pages if it was non-zero,
which indicates it is participating in normal refcounting (and can be
released with put_page).
This addresses CVE-2021-22543.
