CVE-2022-50093 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

iommu/vt-d: avoid invalid memory access via node_online(NUMA_NO_NODE)

KASAN reports:

[ 4.668325][ T0] BUG: KASAN: wild-memory-access in dmar_parse_one_rhsa (arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:214 arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:226 include/asm-generic/bitops/instrumented-non-atomic.h:142 include/linux/nodemask.h:415 drivers/iommu/intel/dmar.c:497) [ 4.676149][ T0] Read of size 8 at addr 1fffffff85115558 by task swapper/0/0 [ 4.683454][ T0] [ 4.685638][ T0] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.19.0-rc3-00004-g0e862838f290 1 [ 4.694331][ T0] Hardware name: Supermicro SYS-5018D-FN4T/X10SDV-8C-TLN4F BIOS 1.1 03/02/2016 [ 4.703196][ T0] Call Trace: [ 4.706334][ T0] [ 4.709133][ T0] ? dmar_parse_one_rhsa (arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:214 arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:226 include/asm-generic/bitops/instrumented-non-atomic.h:142 include/linux/nodemask.h:415 drivers/iommu/intel/dmar.c:497)

after converting the type of the first argument (@nr bit number) of arch_test_bit() from long to unsigned long[0].

Under certain conditions (for example when ACPI NUMA is disabled via command line) pxm_to_node() can return %NUMA_NO_NODE (-1). It is valid ‘magic’ number of NUMA node but not valid bit number to use in bitops. node_online() eventually descends to test_bit() without checking for the input assuming it’s on caller side (which might be good for perf-critical tasks). There -1 becomes %ULONG_MAX which leads to an insane array index when calculating bit position in memory.

For now add an explicit check for @node being not %NUMA_NO_NODE before calling test_bit(). The actual logics didn’t change here at all.
