[PATCH] fortify: Capture __bos() results in const temp vars
From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Oct 28 2022 - 19:10:40 EST
In two recent run-time memcpy() bound checking bug reports (NFS[1] and
JFS[2]), the _detection_ was working correctly (in the sense that the
requested copy size was larger than the destination field size), but
the _warning text_ was showing the destination field size as SIZE_MAX
("unknown size"). This should be impossible, since the detection function
will explicitly give up if the destination field size is unknown. For
example, the JFS warning was:
memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 132) of single field "ip->i_link" at fs/jfs/namei.c:950 (size 18446744073709551615)
Other cases of this warning (e.g.[3]) have reported correctly,
and the reproducer only happens under GCC (at least 10.2 and 12.1),
so this currently appears to be a GCC bug. Explicitly capturing the
__builtin_object_size() results in const temporary variables fixes the
report. For example, the JFS reproducer now correctly reports the field
size (128):
memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 132) of single field "ip->i_link" at fs/jfs/namei.c:950 (size 128)
Examination of the .text delta (which is otherwise identical), shows
the literal value used in the report changing:
- mov $0xffffffffffffffff,%rcx
+ mov $0x80,%ecx
