Subject: [PATCH] switchtec: Fix potential Spectre v1
Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2018 14:06:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180816190646.GA9610@embeddedor.com> (raw)

p.port can is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/pci/switch/switchtec.c:912 ioctl_port_to_pff() warn: potential
spectre issue 'pcfg->dsp_pff_inst_id' [r]

Fix this by sanitizing p.port before using it to index
pcfg->dsp_pff_inst_id

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].
