[PATCH v2 01/11] KVM: arm: plug guest debug exploit

[PATCH v2 01/11] KVM: arm: plug guest debug exploit

[Zhichao Huang]

Hardware debugging in guests is not intercepted currently, it means
that a malicious guest can bring down the entire machine by writing
to the debug registers.

This patch enable trapping of all debug registers, preventing the guests
to mess with the host state.

However, it is a precursor for later patches which will need to do
more to world switch debug states while necessary.

There is a small problem here. Imagine the host has programmed a
watchpoint on some VA. We switch to the guest, and then access the same
VA. At that stage, the guest will take the debug exception. That's
really not pretty.

I think using HDCR_TDE as well should sort it, effectively preventing
the exception from being delivered to the guest, but you will need to
handle this on the HYP side. Performance wise, this is also really horrible.

A better way would be to disable the host's BPs/WPs if any is enabled.

I've thought about it and I think there maybe OK, because when we switch from the
host to the guest, the context_switch() in host must be called first, and then
the host will switch debug registers, and the guest will not see the watchpoint
the host programmed before.

Or am I missing some circumstances here?

I don't see anything in this patch that reprograms the debug registers.
You are simply trapping the guest access to these registers, but
whatever content the host has put there is still active.

So, assuming that the guest does not touch any debug register (and
legitimately assumes that they are inactive), a debug exception may fire
at PL1.

I still think you either need to fixup the host's registers if they are
active when you enter the guest.

I have had a test on the problem you mentioned. I programmed a watchpoint in the host,
and then observe the value of debug registers in the guest.

The result is that in most cases, the guest would not be able to see the watchpoint because
when we switch from the host to the guest, the process schedule function(__schedule) would
be called, and it will uninstall debug registers the host just programed.

__schedule  ->  __perf_event_task_sched_out -> event_sched_out -> arch_uninstall_hw_breakpoint

However, there is one exception, if we programed a watchpoint based on the Qemu process in
the host, there would be no process schedule between the Qemu process and the guest, and then,
the problem you mentioned appear, the guest will see the value of debug registers.

Compared to disable the whole debug feature in the host, I think there may be a slighter way to
plug the exploit.

We can only save/restore DBGDSCR on each switch between the guest and the host. It means that
the debug monitor in guest would be disabled forever(because the guest could not be able to enable
the debug monitor without the following patches), and then the guest would not be able to take
any debug exceptions.

What's your opinion?

Re: [PATCH v2 01/11] KVM: arm: plug guest debug exploit

[zichao]

Hi, Will,

I and marc are talking about how to plug the guest debug exploit in an easier way.

I remembered that you mentioned disabling monitor mode had proven to be extremely fragile
in practice on 32-bit ARM SoCs, what if I save/restore the debug monitor mode on each
switch between the guest and the host, would it be acceptable?

If you're just referring to DBGDSCRext, then you could give it a go, but
you'll certainly want to predicate any writes to that register on whether
or not hw_breakpoint managed to reset the debug regs on the host.

Like I said, accessing these registers always worries me, so I'd really
avoid it in KVM if you can. If not, you'll need to do extensive testing
on a bunch of platforms with and without the presence of external debug.
