[PATCH] hw/intc/arm_gic: Fix interrupt ID in GICD_SGIR register
Posted by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 5 years ago 
Per the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture specification
(document "ARM IHI 0048B.b (ID072613)"), the SGIINTID field is 4 bit,
not 10:

  - 4.3 Distributor register descriptions
  - 4.3.15 Software Generated Interrupt Register, GICD_SG

    - Table 4-21 GICD_SGIR bit assignments

    The Interrupt ID of the SGI to forward to the specified CPU
    interfaces. The value of this field is the Interrupt ID, in
    the range 0-15, for example a value of 0b0011 specifies
    Interrupt ID 3.

Correct the irq mask to fix an undefined behavior (which eventually
lead to a heap-buffer-overflow, see [Buglink]):

I haven't done a thorough analysis, simply tried to fixed this
bug ASAP as it is public so many users are exposed.

I had the impression the first call (writel 0x8000f00 0x5affaf)
break the heap, so the memory is inconsistent when the second
call (write 0x8000eff 0x1 0x0) is done, but better have developers
familiar with GIC and security auditing this again.

Philippe is correct here. In both cases the overrun is on the
first writel to 0x8000f00, but the fuzzer has for some reason not
reported that but instead blundered on until it happens to trigger
some other issue that resulted from the memory corruption it induced
with the first write.

On the CVE:

Since this can affect systems using KVM, this is a security bug for
us. However, it only affects an uncommon configuration:
you are only vulnerable if you are using "kernel-irqchip=off"
(the default is 'on', and turning it off is an odd thing to do).

I've applied this patch to target-arm.next.

thanks

It happens in the standalone reproducer build with
ASAN/--enable-sanitizers, so it seems like an oversight/bug in the
Sanitizers, rather than the fuzzer. It is strange that UBSan seemed to
detect an OOB index, but proceeded as normal. I should start paying
closer attention to those non-fatal UBSan errors.

Ah I had a gut feeling there was a GIC in kvm. CVE or no CVE, --n_bugs
