CVE-2021-47604

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vduse: check that offset is within bounds in get_config() This condition checks "len" but it does not check "offset" and that could result in an out of bounds read if "offset > dev->config_size". The problem is that since both variables are unsigned the "dev->config_size - offset" subtraction would result in a very high unsigned value. I think these checks might not be necessary because "len" and "offset" are supposed to already have been validated using the vhost_vdpa_config_validate() function. But I do not know the code perfectly, and I like to be safe.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: vduse: verifique que el desplazamiento esté dentro de los límites en get_config() Esta condición verifica "len" pero no verifica "desplazamiento" y eso podría resultar en una lectura fuera de los límites si " desplazamiento > dev->config_size". El problema es que, dado que ambas variables no están firmadas, la resta "dev->config_size - offset" daría como resultado un valor sin firmar muy alto. Creo que estas comprobaciones podrían no ser necesarias porque se supone que "len" y "offset" ya se han validado mediante la función vhost_vdpa_config_validate(). Pero no conozco el código a la perfección y me gusta estar seguro.
