[PATCH v2] iwlegacy: 4965: fix possible out-of-bounds access in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate()
Posted by Alexei Safin 1 year ago 
Prevent out-of-bounds access in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate() by rejecting
rate_idx values greater than or equal to RATE_COUNT_LEGACY.

Use a correct bounds check to avoid accessing il_rates[] with
an invalid index. The previous comparison allowed rate_idx to become
equal to RATE_COUNT_LEGACY, which exceeds the array limit.

Replace the check 'rate_idx > RATE_COUNT_LEGACY' with
'rate_idx >= RATE_COUNT_LEGACY' to ensure memory safety.

Thanks for the patch, however I think it's not correct.

The definitions are:

enum {
        RATE_1M_IDX = 0,
	...
	RATE_54M_INDEX,
	RATE_60M_INDEX,
	RATE_COUNT
        RATE_COUNT_LEGACY = RATE_COUNT - 1,     /* Excluding 60M */
}

extern const struct il_rate_info il_rates[RATE_COUNT];

.. so looks the check is fine already and changing it will induce a bug
for RATE_54M_INDEX.

Here goes the fragment:

		rate_idx += IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE;
	/* Get PLCP rate for tx_cmd->rate_n_flags */
	rate_plcp = il_rates[rate_idx].plcp;

Looks like the proper checks should be added to address the 5GHZ case and
validate that the index won't exceed the array boundaries after being shifted
by IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE.

Good point. It make sense to move rate_idx range check after possible
IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE addition for 5GHz.

[PATCH] wifi: iwlegacy: Check rate_idx range after addition
Posted by Stanislaw Gruszka 11 months, 2 weeks ago 
Move rate_idx range check after we add IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE for it
for 5GHz band.

Additionally use ">= RATE_COUNT" check instead of "> RATE_COUNT_LEGACY"
to avoid possible reviewers and static code analyzers confusion about
size of il_rate array.

5GHZ shouldn't be in 'else if' clause, I think. Is it mutually exclusive
with IEEE80211_TX_RC_MCS ?

There is a check inside il4965_rs_get_rate():

	/* Check for invalid rates */
	if (rate_idx < 0 || rate_idx >= RATE_COUNT_LEGACY ||
	    (sband->band == NL80211_BAND_5GHZ &&
	     rate_idx < IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE))
		rate_idx = rate_lowest_index(sband, sta);

so RATE_COUNT_LEGACY (60M) is considered invalid there but is accepted
here in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate(). It looks strange, at least for the
fresh reader as me..

Right, this is wrong. I thought we can use index returned by
rate_lowest_index() but we still should add IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE.
At least this is how is done now.

Indeed this is strange. I'm not sure why those checks differ.

Anyway for the rate_idx in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate()
for 5GHs I'll just add additional check like below:

	if (info->band == NL80211_BAND_5GHZ) {
		rate_idx += IL_FIRST_OFDM_RATE;
		if (rate_idx > IL_LAST_OFDM_RATE);
			rate_idx = IL_LAST_OFDM_RATE;
	}

This patch should be dropped.

Stanislaw
