From 69d2c86766da2ded2b70281f1bf242cb0d58a778 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Gustavo A. R. Silva" Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2018 14:10:08 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] ip6mr: Fix potential Spectre v1 vulnerability vr.mifi is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: net/ipv6/ip6mr.c:1845 ip6mr_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'mrt->vif_table' [r] (local cap) net/ipv6/ip6mr.c:1919 ip6mr_compat_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'mrt->vif_table' [r] (local cap) Fix this by sanitizing vr.mifi before using it to index mrt->vif_table' Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].
