[PATCH RESEND] HID: multitouch: fix slab out-of-bounds access in mt_report_fixup()
Posted by Qasim Ijaz 2 months, 2 weeks ago
A malicious HID device can trigger a slab out-of-bounds during
mt_report_fixup() by passing in report descriptor smaller than
607 bytes. mt_report_fixup() attempts to patch byte offset 607 
of the descriptor with 0x25 by first checking if byte offset 
607 is 0x15 however it lacks bounds checks to verify if the 
descriptor is big enough before conducting this check. Fix 
this vulnerability by ensuring the descriptor size is 
greater than or equal to 608 before accessing it.

Below is the KASAN splat after the out of bounds access happens:

This is wrong. You have all the spaces/tabs in the string now. Drop all 
the backslashes, and open and close the string on every line.

As this is superlong and superindented, perhaps introduce a new function 
for these devices?

This was horrid too, yeah.

A predicate missing. Eg. "has only", or "is only".

Thanks for the feedback Jiri, I took the advice on board, is something
like this better?

 static const __u8 *mt_report_fixup(struct hid_device *hdev, __u8 *rdesc,
				   unsigned int *size)
 {
          if (hdev->vendor == I2C_VENDOR_ID_GOODIX &&
              (hdev->product == I2C_DEVICE_ID_GOODIX_01E8 ||
               hdev->product == I2C_DEVICE_ID_GOODIX_01E9)) {
		 if (*size < 608) {
			 dev_info(
				 &hdev->dev,
				 "GT7868Q fixup: report descriptor is only %u bytes, skipping\n",
				 *size);
                          return rdesc;
                  }
 
		 if (rdesc[607] == 0x15) {
			 rdesc[607] = 0x25;
			 dev_info(
				 &hdev->dev,
				 "GT7868Q fixup: report descriptor fixup is applied.\n");
		 } else {
			 dev_info(&hdev->dev,
				 "GT7868Q fixup: offset 607 is %x (expected 0x15), "
				 "descriptor may be malformed, skipping\n",
				 rdesc[607]);
		 }
	  }
 
 	  return rdesc;
 }

the key changes I made are:

- Move size check to the top, this way the indentation level is decent
- get rid of message backslashes
- shorten the fixup failure message when rdesc[607] is not 0x15 and make
  it a bit clearer since this message was the longest - just a minor
  cleanup
- added "is only %u bytes" as you suggested

if this is all good I can send v2.

Thanks

I would invert the conditions. So the code would look like:

static bool goodix_needs_fixup(hdev)
{
   if (hdev->vendor != I2C_VENDOR_ID_GOODIX)
     return false;

  return hdev->product == I2C_DEVICE_ID_GOODIX_01E8 ||
                  hdev->product == I2C_DEVICE_ID_GOODIX_01E9;
}

static const __u8 *mt_report_fixup(struct hid_device *hdev, __u8 *rdesc,
  				   unsigned int *size)
{
   if (!goodix_needs_fixup(hdev))
     return rdesc;

   if (*size < 608) {
     dev_info(&hdev->dev,
              "GT7868Q fixup: report descriptor is only %u bytes, 
skipping\n",
  	     *size);
     return rdesc;
   }

   if (rdesc[607] != 0x15) {
     dev_info(&hdev->dev,
  	 "GT7868Q fixup: offset 607 is %x (expected 0x15), descriptor may be 
malformed, skipping\n",
          rdesc[607]);
     return rdesc;
   }

   rdesc[607] = 0x25;
   dev_info(&hdev->dev,
  	 "GT7868Q fixup: report descriptor fixup is applied.\n");

   return rdesc;
}

Thanks Jiri, this looks good. I think Ill split this into 2 patches
one for fixing the OOB with a size check and the second for a general
function cleanup. Hope that sounds good.
