Subject: [PATCH bpf v2 0/2] Fix bpf_probe_read_user_str() overcopying
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2020 18:25:36 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1604542786.git.dxu@dxuuu.xyz> (raw)

6ae08ae3dea2 ("bpf: Add probe_read_{user, kernel} and probe_read_{user,
kernel}_str helpers") introduced a subtle bug where
bpf_probe_read_user_str() would potentially copy a few extra bytes after
the NUL terminator.

This issue is particularly nefarious when strings are used as map keys,
as seemingly identical strings can occupy multiple entries in a map.

This patchset fixes the issue and introduces a selftest to prevent
future regressions.

Daniel Xu (2):
  lib/strncpy_from_user.c: Don't overcopy bytes after NUL terminator
  selftest/bpf: Test bpf_probe_read_user_str() strips trailing bytes
    after NUL
