[PATCH v2 0/3] KVM: x86: Out-of-bounds access in kvm_recalculate_phys_map()

Posted by Sean Christopherson 2 years, 8 months ago

v2 of Michal's fix for a TOCTOU bug in kvm_recalculate_phys_map().   Not
fully tested (will do that next week), though I did confirm the reworked
selftest can hit the bug.  Posting a bit prematurely as I have a long weekend
and I don't want Michal to do any duplicate work.

In Michal's words...

kvm_recalculate_apic_map() creates the APIC map iterating over the list of
vCPUs twice. First to find the max APIC ID and allocate a max-sized buffer,
then again, calling kvm_recalculate_phys_map() for each vCPU. This opens a
race window: value of max APIC ID can increase _after_ the buffer was
allocated.

Michal Luczaj (1):
  KVM: selftests: Add test for race in kvm_recalculate_apic_map()

Sean Christopherson (2):
  KVM: x86: Bail from kvm_recalculate_phys_map() if x2APIC ID is
    out-of-bounds
  KVM: x86: Retry APIC optimized map recalc if vCPU is added/enabled
