If the radix tree underlying the IDR happens to be full and we attempt to remove an id which is larger than any id in the IDR, we will call __radix_tree_delete() with an uninitialised 'slot' pointer, at which point anything could happen. This was easiest to hit with a single entry at id 0 and attempting to remove a non-0 id, but it could have happened with 64 entries and attempting to remove an id >= 64. Roman said: The syzcaller test boils down to opening /dev/kvm, creating an eventfd, and calling a couple of KVM ioctls. None of this requires superuser. And the result is dereferencing an uninitialized pointer which is likely a crash. The specific path caught by syzbot is via KVM_HYPERV_EVENTD ioctl which is new in 4.17. But I guess there are other user-triggerable paths, so cc:stable is probably justified. Matthew added: We have around 250 calls to idr_remove() in the kernel today. Many of them pass an ID which is embedded in the object they're removing, so they're safe. Picking a few likely candidates: drivers/firewire/core-cdev.c looks unsafe; the ID comes from an ioctl. drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ctx.c is similar drivers/atm/nicstar.c could be taken down by a handcrafted packet Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180518175025.GD6361@bombadil.infradead.org Fixes: 0a835c4f090a ("Reimplement IDR and IDA using the radix tree") Reported-by: <syzbot+35666cba7f0a337e2e79@syzkaller.appspotmail.com> Debugged-by: Roman Kagan <rkagan@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
