[PATCH 4.20 002/183] kprobe: Do not use uaccess functions to access kernel memory that can fault

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 25 2019 - 16:46:25 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Changbin Du <changbin.du@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2c4f1fcbef0bc324830bc2fb1a264c08ec93dec5 upstream.

The userspace can ask kprobe to intercept strings at any memory address,
including invalid kernel address. In this case, fetch_store_strlen()
would crash since it uses general usercopy function, and user access
functions are no longer allowed to access kernel memory.

For example, we can crash the kernel by doing something as below:

$ sudo kprobe 'p:do_sys_open +0(+0(%si)):string'

This can be fixed by using probe_mem_read() instead, as it can handle faulting
kernel memory addresses, which kprobes can legitimately do.
