[PATCH] net/socket: Ensure length of input socket option param >= sizeof(int)
Posted by Edward Adam Davis 1 year, 10 months ago 
The optlen value passed by syzbot to _sys_setsockopt() is 2, which results in
only 2 bytes being allocated when allocating memory to kernel_optval, and the
optval size passed when calling the function copy_from_sockptr() is 4 bytes.
Here, optlen is determined uniformly in the entry function __sys_setsockopt(). 
If its value is less than 4, the parameter is considered invalid.

I think I gave my feedback already.

Please do not ignore maintainers feedback.

This patch is absolutely wrong.

Some setsockopt() deal with optlen == 1 just fine, thank you very much.

It's better to use evidence to support your claim, rather than your "maintainer" title.

Run selftests.

I will answer since you ask so nicely,
but if you plan sending linux kernel patches, I suggest you look in
the source code.

Look at do_ip_setsockopt(), which is one of the most used setsockopt()
in the world.

The code is at least 20 years old.

It even supports optlen == 0

               if (optlen >= sizeof(int)) {
                       if (copy_from_sockptr(&val, optval, sizeof(val)))
                               return -EFAULT;
               } else if (optlen >= sizeof(char)) {
                       unsigned char ucval;

                       if (copy_from_sockptr(&ucval, optval, sizeof(ucval)))
                               return -EFAULT;
                       val = (int) ucval;
               }
       }

       /* If optlen==0, it is equivalent to val == 0 */

+1, I don't think the setsockopt interface has a fixed minimum of
sizeof(int), so this is a nak from me as well.

[PATCH] Bluetooth: fix oob in rfcomm_sock_setsockopt
Posted by Edward Adam Davis 1 year, 10 months ago 
If optlen < sizeof(u32) it will trigger oob, so take the min of them.

This has been dealt with already:
