[PATCH v4 0/9] PCI: Fix UAF and TOCTOU related to dynamic ID
Posted by Gary Guo 23 hours ago
While working on improving the Rust abstractions [1], Sashiko reported that
an existing UAF issue related to dynamic ID, which I find to be genuine.
When taking a look at the code I also find a TOCTOU issue where the
existence check of dynamic ID happens in a separate critical section as the
actual insertion. This series fix both issues.

There are two exported functions pci_match_id() and pci_add_dynid() which I
have to tweak to implement this cleanly; I created separate "do_xxx"
functions to keep the existing APIs because they all have multiple users.

There're a few existing users which stores their pci_device_id argument in
probe callback. This is a bad pattern because nothing except driver_data
inside pci_device_id is what they want; actual ID information can be
retrieved from pci_dev instead.

There are two users that performs pointer arithmetic on the pci_device_id;
these are also problematic with dynamic ID and driver_override, so fix them
as well.

I've used the following coccinelle script to flag all cases where the
pci_device_id is used other than reading its fields.

@usage@
identifier fn, id;
position p;
@@
  fn(..., struct pci_device_id *id, ...)
  {
    ...
    id@p
    ...
  }

// Due to cocci isomorphism this needs to be explicit
@bad@
identifier fn, id;
type T;
position usage.p;
@@
  fn(..., struct pci_device_id *id, ...)
  {
    ...
    (T*)id@p
    ...
  }

// Good use cases
@good@
identifier fn, id, fld;
expression E;
position usage.p;
@@
  fn(..., struct pci_device_id *id, ...)
  {
    ...
(
    id@p->fld
|
    E(..., id@p, ...)
|
// Redundant checks, but ignore
    !id@p
|
// Redundant checks, but ignore
    id ? ... : ...
)
    ...
  }

@script:python depends on usage && (bad || !good)@
p << usage.p;
