[PATCH 02/12] perf jitdump: Validate code_size against total_size in code load
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Aug 05 2026 - 17:28:10 EST
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>
jit_repipe_code_load() reads code_size from the jitdump record and uses
it to compute a pointer to the code blob:
code = (unsigned long)jr + jr->load.p.total_size - csize;
An oversized code_size underflows the pointer arithmetic, causing OOB
reads into earlier heap memory. Validate that code_size fits within the
record (total_size - sizeof(jr->load)) before the pointer computation.
code_size is uint64_t but csize is int; values above INT_MAX wrap
negative when narrowed into csize, which defeats the bounds check and
sends the code pointer past the end of the record. Reject those too.
Fixes: 9b07e27f88b9 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support")
