In the hardend usercopy, the destination buffer will be zeroed if
copy_from_user/get_user fails. This patch adds testcases for it.
The destination buffer is set with non-zero value before illegal
copy_from_user/get_user is executed and the buffer is compared to
zero after usercopy is done.

This looks great!

I'll adjust the commit slightly (the zeroing always happens,
regardless of hardened usercopy) and add it to my usercopy tree.

Thanks!

Oh, actually, ha-ha: this isn't legal: it's a direct copy from kernel
to userspace. :) This needs a copy_to_user()... (and same for the
memcmp...)

On second thought, don't worry about a respin, I had to adjust the bad
copy_from_user() that was already in there (which fails under SMAP/PAN
anyway). I'll clean this up and add it to the tree.

Thanks!

I just came up with that usercopy doesn't check the buffer is valid when zeroing happens. I mean if the buffer is wrong address pointing other kernel objects or user space address, is it possible for zeroing to overwrite the address ?

Actually on my x86_64 (qemu), this testcase fails.
The generic get_user has zeroing but the one of arch x86 does not.
Do we need to propagate zeroing to the other arch specific get_user code ?

The overwrite happening even when the address is "wrong" seems like a
bug to me, but it's sort of already too late (a bad kernel address
would have already been a target for a userspace copy), but if
something has gone really wrong (i.e. attacker doesn't have control
over the source buffer) this does give a "write 0" primitive.

Mark Rutland noticed some order-of-operations issues here too, and his
solution is pretty straight forward: move the checks outside the
failure path. If the kernel target is demonstrably bad, then the
process will be killed before the write 0 happens. (In the non-const
case at least...)

(Oh, btw, I just noticed that x86's copy_from_user() already does the
check before _copy_from_user() can do the memset, so x86 is already
"ok" in this regard.)

Hm, this didn't fail for me on x86 nor arm. Or, at least, my updated
test doesn't fail:

       value = 0x5A;
       ret |= test(!get_user(value, (unsigned long __user *)kmem),
                   "illegal get_user passed");
       ret |= test(value != 0, "zeroing failure for illegal get_user");

I see the zeroing in the x86 uaccess.h, though it's a bit obfuscated:

#define get_user(x, ptr)                                                \
({                                                                      \
        int __ret_gu;                                                   \
        register __inttype(*(ptr)) __val_gu asm("%"_ASM_DX);            \
        register void *__sp asm(_ASM_SP);                               \
        __chk_user_ptr(ptr);                                            \
        might_fault();                                                  \
        asm volatile("call __get_user_%P4"                              \
                     : "=a" (__ret_gu), "=r" (__val_gu), "+r" (__sp)    \
                     : "0" (ptr), "i" (sizeof(*(ptr))));                \
        (x) = (__force __typeof__(*(ptr))) __val_gu;                    \
        __builtin_expect(__ret_gu, 0);                                  \
})

__ret_gu is the 0 or -EFAULT (from the __get_user_* assembly), and x
is set unconditionally to __val_gu, which gets zero-set by the same
assembly.

Regardless, I'll expand the tests to check all get_user() sizes...

FWIW, the patch making arm64 do the check first is queued [1], and
should be in v4.11.

Doing the same for other architectures would be good.

It looks like x86 is already ok (kind of by accident). ARM needs
fixing. I think it'd be best to model it after arm64's approach.
