In the QFQ scheduler a similar issue to CVE-2023-31436
persists.
Consider the following code in net/sched/sch_qfq.c:
static int qfq_enqueue(struct sk_buff *skb, struct Qdisc *sch,
struct sk_buff **to_free)
{
unsigned int len = qdisc_pkt_len(skb), gso_segs;
// ...
if (unlikely(cl->agg->lmax < len)) {
pr_debug("qfq: increasing maxpkt from %u to %u for class %u",
cl->agg->lmax, len, cl->common.classid);
err = qfq_change_agg(sch, cl, cl->agg->class_weight, len);
if (err) {
cl->qstats.drops++;
return qdisc_drop(skb, sch, to_free);
}
// ...
}
Similarly to CVE-2023-31436, "lmax" is increased without any bounds
checks according to the packet length "len". Usually this would not
impose a problem because packet sizes are naturally limited.
This is however not the actual packet length, rather the
"qdisc_pkt_len(skb)" which might apply size transformations according to
"struct qdisc_size_table" as created by "qdisc_get_stab()" in
net/sched/sch_api.c if the TCA_STAB option was set when modifying the qdisc.
A user may choose virtually any size using such a table.
As a result the same issue as in CVE-2023-31436 can occur, allowing heap
out-of-bounds read / writes in the kmalloc-8192 cache.
-------
We can create the issue with the following commands:
tc qdisc add dev $DEV root handle 1: stab mtu 2048 tsize 512 mpu 0 \
overhead
999999999 linklayer ethernet qfq
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 6mbit burst 15k
tc filter add dev $DEV parent 1: matchall classid 1:1
ping -I $DEV 1.1.1.2
This is caused by incorrectly assuming that qdisc_pkt_len() returns a
length within the QFQ_MIN_LMAX < len < QFQ_MAX_LMAX.
