[PATCH] net: sched: Fix memory exposure from short TCA_U32_SEL

From: Kees Cook
Date: Sun Aug 26 2018 - 01:58:11 EST


Via u32_change(), TCA_U32_SEL has an unspecified type in the netlink
policy, so max length isn't enforced, only minimum. This means nkeys
(from userspace) was being trusted without checking the actual size of
nla_len(), which could lead to a memory over-read, and ultimately an
exposure via a call to u32_dump(). Reachability is CAP_NET_ADMIN within
a namespace.

This should go through -stable please, but I have left off the "Cc:
stable" as per netdev patch policy. Note that use of struct_size()
will need manual expansion in backports, such as:
sel_size = sizeof(*s) + sizeof(*s->keys) * s->nkeys;
