What to Know

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ice: reject out-of-range ptype in ice_parser_profile_init

set_bit(rslt->ptype, prof->ptypes) operates on a DECLARE_BITMAP of

ICE_FLOW_PTYPE_MAX (1024) bits. Nothing prevents a malicious VF from

providing ptype >= 1024 through VIRTCHNL, resulting in a write past

the end of the bitmap and a kernel page fault.

Reproduced with a custom kernel module injecting a crafted

VIRTCHNL_OP_ADD_RSS_CFG on E810-C QSFP (8086:1592),

FW 4.91 0x800214af 1.3909.0, ICE COMMS DDP 1.3.53.0,

kernel 7.1.0-rc1.

crash_parser: ice_parser_profile_init @ ffffffffc0d61b60

crash_parser: setting ptype=0xffff (max valid=1023)

crash_parser: calling ice_parser_profile_init -- expect OOB crash!

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

Oops: Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI

CPU: 56 UID: 0 PID: 165011 Comm: insmod Kdump: loaded Tainted: G S U OE 7.1.0-rc1 #1

Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600BPB/S2600BPB

RIP: 0010:ice_parser_profile_init+0x2d/0x1d0 [ice]
