linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, arm64: Fix address emission with tag-based KASAN enabled
When BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG is enabled, the address of a bpf_tramp_image
struct on the stack is passed during the size calculation pass and
an address on the heap is passed during code generation. This may
cause a heap buffer overflow if the heap address is tagged because
emit_a64_mov_i64() will emit longer code than it did during the size
calculation pass. The same problem could occur without tag-based
KASAN if one of the 16-bit words of the stack address happened to
be all-ones during the size calculation pass. Fix the problem by
assuming the worst case (4 instructions) when calculating the size
of the bpf_tramp_image address emission.
