Currently, while reads are disallowed for dynptr stack slots, writes are
not. Reads don't work from both direct access and helpers, while writes
do work in both cases, but have the effect of overwriting the slot_type.
While this is fine, handling for a few edge cases is missing. Firstly,
a user can overwrite the stack slots of dynptr partially.
Consider the following layout:
spi: [d][d][?]
2 1 0
First slot is at spi 2, second at spi 1.
Now, do a write of 1 to 8 bytes for spi 1.
This will essentially either write STACK_MISC for all slot_types or
STACK_MISC and STACK_ZERO (in case of size < BPF_REG_SIZE partial write
of zeroes). The end result is that slot is scrubbed.
Now, the layout is:
spi: [d][m][?]
2 1 0
Suppose if user initializes spi = 1 as dynptr.
We get:
spi: [d][d][d]
2 1 0
But this time, both spi 2 and spi 1 have first_slot = true.
Now, when passing spi 2 to dynptr helper, it will consider it as
initialized as it does not check whether second slot has first_slot ==
false. And spi 1 should already work as normal.
This effectively replaced size + offset of first dynptr, hence allowing
invalid OOB reads and writes.
Make a few changes to protect against this:
When writing to PTR_TO_STACK using BPF insns, when we touch spi of a
STACK_DYNPTR type, mark both first and second slot (regardless of which
slot we touch) as STACK_INVALID. Reads are already prevented.
Second, prevent writing to stack memory from helpers if the range may
contain any STACK_DYNPTR slots. Reads are already prevented.
For helpers, we cannot allow it to destroy dynptrs from the writes as
depending on arguments, helper may take uninit_mem and dynptr both at
the same time. This would mean that helper may write to uninit_mem
before it reads the dynptr, which would be bad.
PTR_TO_MEM: [?????dd]
Depending on the code inside the helper, it may end up overwriting the
dynptr contents first and then read those as the dynptr argument.
Verifier would only simulate destruction when it does byte by byte
access simulation in check_helper_call for meta.access_size, and
fail to catch this case, as it happens after argument checks.
The same would need to be done for any other non-trivial objects created
on the stack in the future, such as bpf_list_head on stack, or
bpf_rb_root on stack.
A common misunderstanding in the current code is that MEM_UNINIT means
writes, but note that writes may also be performed even without
MEM_UNINIT in case of helpers, in that case the code after handling meta
&& meta->raw_mode will complain when it sees STACK_DYNPTR. So that
invalid read case also covers writes to potential STACK_DYNPTR slots.
The only loophole was in case of meta->raw_mode which simulated writes
through instructions which could overwrite them.
A future series sequenced after this will focus on the clean up of
helper access checks and bugs around that.
