Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

arp: Prevent overflow in arp_req_get().

syzkaller reported an overflown write in arp_req_get(). [0]

When ioctl(SIOCGARP) is issued, arp_req_get() looks up an neighbour
entry and copies neigh->ha to struct arpreq.arp_ha.sa_data.

The arp_ha here is struct sockaddr, not struct sockaddr_storage, so
the sa_data buffer is just 14 bytes.

In the splat below, 2 bytes are overflown to the next int field,
arp_flags. We initialise the field just after the memcpy(), so it's
not a problem.

However, when dev->addr_len is greater than 22 (e.g. MAX_ADDR_LEN),
arp_netmask is overwritten, which could be set as htonl(0xFFFFFFFFUL)
in arp_ioctl() before calling arp_req_get().

To avoid the overflow, let's limit the max length of memcpy().

Note that commit b5f0de6df6dc ("net: dev: Convert sa_data to flexible
array in struct sockaddr") just silenced syzkaller.

En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: arp: Evita el desbordamiento en arp_req_get(). syzkaller informó una escritura desbordada en arp_req_get(). [0] Cuando se emite ioctl(SIOCGARP), arp_req_get() busca una entrada vecina y copia neigh-&gt;ha para estructurar arpreq.arp_ha.sa_data. El arp_ha aquí es struct sockaddr, no struct sockaddr_storage, por lo que el búfer sa_data tiene solo 14 bytes. En el siguiente símbolo, se desbordan 2 bytes al siguiente campo int, arp_flags. Inicializamos el campo justo después de memcpy(), por lo que no es un problema. Sin embargo, cuando dev-&gt;addr_len es mayor que 22 (por ejemplo, MAX_ADDR_LEN), se sobrescribe arp_netmask, que podría configurarse como htonl(0xFFFFFFFFUL) en arp_ioctl() antes de llamar a arp_req_get(). Para evitar el desbordamiento, limitemos la longitud máxima de memcpy(). Tenga en cuenta que el commit b5f0de6df6dc ("net: dev: Convert sa_data to flexible array in struct sockaddr") simplemente silenció a syzkaller.

A vulnerability was found in the arp_req_get() function in the Linux kernel when handling the SIOCGARP ioctl (input/output control) request. This function copies data over into a fixed-length buffer which could result in a buffer overflow and cause memory corruption, undefined behavior, or crashes.
