From b334ab4c3347e028f050c17a79ec1bb249aefcd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hawkins Jiawei Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2022 07:34:59 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] wifi: wext: use flex array destination for memcpy() commit e3e6e1d16a4cf7b63159ec71774e822194071954 upstream. Syzkaller reports buffer overflow false positive as follows: ------------[ cut here ]------------ memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 8) of single field "&compat_event->pointer" at net/wireless/wext-core.c:623 (size 4) WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 3607 at net/wireless/wext-core.c:623 wireless_send_event+0xab5/0xca0 net/wireless/wext-core.c:623 Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 3607 Comm: syz-executor659 Not tainted 6.0.0-rc6-next-20220921-syzkaller #0 [...] Call Trace: ioctl_standard_call+0x155/0x1f0 net/wireless/wext-core.c:1022 wireless_process_ioctl+0xc8/0x4c0 net/wireless/wext-core.c:955 wext_ioctl_dispatch net/wireless/wext-core.c:988 [inline] wext_ioctl_dispatch net/wireless/wext-core.c:976 [inline] wext_handle_ioctl+0x26b/0x280 net/wireless/wext-core.c:1049 sock_ioctl+0x285/0x640 net/socket.c:1220 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:870 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:856 [inline] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x193/0x200 fs/ioctl.c:856 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd [...] Wireless events will be sent on the appropriate channels in wireless_send_event(). Different wireless events may have different payload structure and size, so kernel uses **len** and **cmd** field in struct __compat_iw_event as wireless event common LCP part, uses **pointer** as a label to mark the position of remaining different part. Yet the problem is that, **pointer** is a compat_caddr_t type, which may be smaller than the relative structure at the same position. So during wireless_send_event() tries to parse the wireless events payload, it may trigger the memcpy() run-time destination buffer bounds checking when the relative structure's data is copied to the position marked by **pointer**. This patch solves it by introducing flexible-array field **ptr_bytes**, to mark the position of the wireless events remaining part next to LCP part. What's more, this patch also adds **ptr_len** variable in wireless_send_event() to improve its maintainability.
