Description Joseph Myers 2014-02-21 01:10:26 UTC
stdio-common/vfscanf.c has an ADDW macro that tries to determine whether to use malloc or alloca for allocations.  But in the malloc case, it only allocates newsize bytes instead of the required newsize * sizeof (CHAR_T).  Thus the allocated buffer gets overrun in the wide-string case, as shown by the following testcase:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <wchar.h>

#define SIZE 131072

int
main (void)
{
  wchar_t *s = malloc ((SIZE + 1) * sizeof (*s));
  if (s == NULL)
    abort ();
  for (size_t i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
    s[i] = L'0';
  s[SIZE] = L'\0';
  int i;
  if (swscanf (s, L"%d", &i) != 1)
    abort ();
  if (i != 0)
    abort ();
  free (s);
  return 0;
}

I expect this should be considered a security issue and get a CVE allocated.

The logic also has a problem that the comparison UCHAR_MAX + 1 > 2 * wpmax doesn't allow for 2 * wpmax overflowing, though that would only apply if half the address space gets allocated.  The check with __libc_use_alloca also checks against the number of array entries to allocate rather than the number of bytes, so the function can allocate up to four times as many bytes as is libc policy on the stack in the wide character case.

    BZ #16618
    
    Under certain conditions wscanf can allocate too little memory for the
    to-be-scanned arguments and overflow the allocated buffer.  The
    implementation now correctly computes the required buffer size when
    using malloc.
    
    A regression test was added to tst-sscanf.

    Fix memory handling in strxfrm_l [BZ #16009]
    
    [Modified from the original email by Siddhesh Poyarekar]
    
    This patch solves bug #16009 by implementing an additional path in
    strxfrm that does not depend on caching the weight and rule indices.
    
    In detail the following changed:
    
    * The old main loop was factored out of strxfrm_l into the function
    do_xfrm_cached to be able to alternativly use the non-caching version
    do_xfrm.
    
    * strxfrm_l allocates a a fixed size array on the stack. If this is not
    sufficiant to store the weight and rule indices, the non-caching path is
    taken. As the cache size is not dependent on the input there can be no
    problems with integer overflows or stack allocations greater than
    __MAX_ALLOCA_CUTOFF. Note that malloc-ing is not possible because the
    definition of strxfrm does not allow an oom errorhandling.
    
    * The uncached path determines the weight and rule index for every char
    and for every pass again.
    
    * Passing all the locale data array by array resulted in very long
    parameter lists, so I introduced a structure that holds them.
    
    * Checking for zero src string has been moved a bit upwards, it is
    before the locale data initialization now.
    
    * To verify that the non-caching path works correct I added a test run
    to localedata/sort-test.sh & localedata/xfrm-test.c where all strings
    are patched up with spaces so that they are too large for the caching path.

    powerpc: abort transaction in syscalls
    
    Linux kernel powerpc documentation states issuing a syscall inside a
    transaction is not recommended and may lead to undefined behavior. It
    also states syscalls does not abort transactoin neither they run in
    transactional state.
    
    To avoid side-effects being visible outside transactions, GLIBC with
    lock elision enabled will issue a transaction abort instruction just
    before all syscalls if hardware supports hardware transactions.

    powerpc: Add the lock elision using HTM
    
    This patch adds support for lock elision using ISA 2.07 hardware
    transactional memory instructions for pthread_mutex primitives.
    Similar to s390 version, the for elision logic defined in
    'force-elision.h' is only enabled if ENABLE_LOCK_ELISION is defined.
    
    Also, the lock elision code should be able to be built even with
    a compiler that does not provide HTM support with builtins.
    However I have noted the performance is sub-optimal due scheduling
    pressures.

    powerpc: Fix POWER7/PPC64 performance regression on LE
    
    This patch fixes a performance regression on the POWER7/PPC64 memcmp
    porting for Little Endian.  The LE code uses 'ldbrx' instruction to read
    the memory on byte reversed form, however ISA 2.06 just provide the indexed
    form which uses a register value as additional index, instead of a fixed value
    enconded in the instruction.
    
    And the port strategy for LE uses r0 index value and update the address
    value on each compare loop interation.  For large compare size values,
    it adds 8 more instructions plus some more depending of trailing
    size.  This patch fixes it by adding pre-calculate indexes to remove the
    address update on loops and tailing sizes.
    
    For large sizes it shows a considerable gain, with double performance
    pairing with BE.

    powerpc: Optimized strncmp for POWER8/PPC64
    
    This patch adds an optimized POWER8 strncmp.  The implementation focus
    on speeding up unaligned cases follwing the ideas of power8 strcmp.
    
    The algorithm first check the initial 16 bytes, then align the first
    function source and uses unaligned loads on second argument only.
    Aditional checks for page boundaries are done for unaligned cases
    (where sources alignment are different).

    powerpc: Optimized st{r,p}ncpy for POWER8/PPC64
    
    This patch adds an optimized POWER8 st{r,p}ncpy using unaligned accesses.
    It shows 10%-80% improvement over the optimized POWER7 one that uses
    only aligned accesses, specially on unaligned inputs.
    
    The algorithm first read and check 16 bytes (if inputs do not cross a 4K
    page size).  The it realign source to 16-bytes and issue a 16 bytes read
    and compare loop to speedup null byte checks for large strings.  Also,
    different from POWER7 optimization, the null pad is done inline in the
    implementation using possible unaligned accesses, instead of realying on
    a memset call.  Special case is added for page cross reads.

    powerpc: Optimized strncat for POWER7/PPC64
    
    With 3eb38795dbbbd816 (Simplify strncat) the generic algorithms uses
    strlen, strnlen, and memcpy.  This is faster than POWER7 current
    implementation, especially for unaligned strings (where POWER7 code
    uses byte-byte operations).
    
    This patch removes the assembly implementation and uses a multiarch
    specialization based on default algorithm calling optimized POWER7

    powerpc: Optimized st{r,p}cpy for POWER8/PPC64
    
    This patch adds an optimized POWER8 strcpy using unaligned accesses.
    For strings up to 16 bytes the implementation first calculate the
    string size, like strlen, and issues a memcpy.  For larger strings,
    source is first aligned to 16 bytes and then tested over a loop that
    reads 16 bytes am combine the cmpb results for speedup.  Special case is
    added for page cross reads.
    
    It shows 30%-60% improvement over the optimized POWER7 one that uses
    only aligned accesses.

    powerpc: POWER7 strcpy optimization for unaligned strings
    
    This patch optimizes strcpy for ppc64/power7 for unaligned source or
    destination address.  The source or destination address is aligned
    to doubleword and data is shifted based on the alignment and
    added with the previous loaded data to be written as a doubleword.
    For each load, cmpb instruction is used for faster null check.
    
    The word aligned optimization is also removed, since the new unaligned
    code path shows better results handling word-aligned strings.
    
    More combination of unaligned inputs is also added in benchtest
    to measure the improvement.The new optimization shows 2 to 80% of
    performance improvement for longer string though it does not show
    big difference on string size less than 16 due to additional checks.

    CVE-2014-7817: wordexp fails to honour WRDE_NOCMD.
    
    The function wordexp() fails to properly handle the WRDE_NOCMD
    flag when processing arithmetic inputs in the form of "$((... ``))"
    where "..." can be anything valid. The backticks in the arithmetic
    epxression are evaluated by in a shell even if WRDE_NOCMD forbade
    command substitution. This allows an attacker to attempt to pass
    dangerous commands via constructs of the above form, and bypass
    the WRDE_NOCMD flag. This patch fixes this by checking for WRDE_NOCMD
    in exec_comm(), the only place that can execute a shell. All other
    checks for WRDE_NOCMD are superfluous and removed.
    
    We expand the testsuite and add 3 new regression tests of roughly
    the same form but with a couple of nested levels.
    
    On top of the 3 new tests we add fork validation to the WRDE_NOCMD
    testing. If any forks are detected during the execution of a wordexp()
    call with WRDE_NOCMD, the test is marked as failed. This is slightly
    heuristic since vfork might be used in the future, but it provides a
    higher level of assurance that no shells were executed as part of
    command substitution with WRDE_NOCMD in effect. In addition it doesn't
    require libpthread or libdl, instead we use the public implementation
    namespace function __register_atfork (already part of the public ABI
    for libpthread).
    
    Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.

    PowerPC: memset optimization for POWER8/PPC64
    
    This patch adds an optimized memset implementation for POWER8.  For
    sizes from 0 to 255 bytes, a word/doubleword algorithm similar to
    POWER7 optimized one is used.
    
    For size higher than 255 two strategies are used:
    
    1. If the constant is different than 0, the memory is written with
       altivec vector instruction;
    
    2. If constant is 0, dbcz instructions are used.  The loop is unrolled
       to clear 512 byte at time.
    
    Using vector instructions increases throughput considerable, with a
    double performance for sizes larger than 1024.  The dcbz loops unrolls
    also shows performance improvement, by doubling throughput for sizes
    larger than 8192 bytes.

    PowerPC: Cleanup powerpc memmove
    
    Now that MEMCPY_OK_FOR_FWD_MEMMOVE should be define on memcopy.h there
    is no need to specialized powerpc memmove implementation.  This patch
    moves the define set to powerpc memcopy and cleanup its definition on
    powerpc code.

    PowerPC: Align power7 memcpy using VSX to quadword
    
    This patch changes power7 memcpy to use VSX instructions only when
    memory is aligned to quardword.  It is to avoid unaligned kernel traps
    on non-cacheable memory (for instance, memory-mapped I/O).

    PowerPC: optimized memmove for POWER7/PPC64
    
    This patch adds an optimized memmove optimization for POWER7/powerpc64.
    Basically the idea is to use the memcpy for POWER7 on non-overlapped
    memory regions and a optimized backward memcpy for memory regions
    that overlap (similar to the idea of string/memmove.c).
    
    The backward memcpy algorithm used is similar the one use for memcpy for
    POWER7, with adjustments done for alignment.  The difference is memory
    is always aligned to 16 bytes before using VSX/altivec instructions.

    PowerPC: memmove default implementation cleanup
    
    This patch removes the powerpc specific logic in memmove and instead
    include default implementation with MEMCPY_OK_FOR_FWD_MEMMOVE defined.
    This lead in a increase performance, since the constraints to use
    memcpy in powerpc code are too restrictive and memcpy can be used for
    any forward memmove.

    CVE-2015-1472: wscanf allocates too little memory
    
    BZ #16618
    
    Under certain conditions wscanf can allocate too little memory for the
    to-be-scanned arguments and overflow the allocated buffer.  The
    implementation now correctly computes the required buffer size when
    using malloc.
    
    A regression test was added to tst-sscanf.

    PowerPC: Fix gettimeofday ifunc selection
    
    The IFUNC selector for gettimeofday runs before _libc_vdso_platform_setup where
    __vdso_gettimeofday is set. The selector then sets __gettimeofday (the internal
    version used within GLIBC) to use the system call version instead of the vDSO one.
    This patch changes the check if vDSO is available to get its value directly
    instead of rely on __vdso_gettimeofday.
    
    This patch changes it by getting the vDSO value directly.
    
    It fixes BZ#16431.

    PowerPC: Fix ftime gettimeofday internal call returning bogus data
    
    This patches fixes BZ#16430 by setting a different symbol for internal
    GLIBC calls that points to ifunc resolvers. For PPC32, if the symbol
    is defined as hidden (which is the case for gettimeofday and time) the
    compiler will create local branches (symbol@local) and linker will not
    create PLT calls (required for IFUNC). This will leads to internal symbol
    calling the IFUNC resolver instead of the resolved symbol.
    For PPC64 this behavior does not occur because a call to a function in
    another translation unit might use a different toc pointer thus requiring
    a PLT call.

    and set its TOC to non 0 to avoid triggering lazy resolutions.

    CVE-2014-7817: wordexp fails to honour WRDE_NOCMD.
    
    The function wordexp() fails to properly handle the WRDE_NOCMD
    flag when processing arithmetic inputs in the form of "$((... ``))"
    where "..." can be anything valid. The backticks in the arithmetic
    epxression are evaluated by in a shell even if WRDE_NOCMD forbade
    command substitution. This allows an attacker to attempt to pass
    dangerous commands via constructs of the above form, and bypass
    the WRDE_NOCMD flag. This patch fixes this by checking for WRDE_NOCMD
    in exec_comm(), the only place that can execute a shell. All other
    checks for WRDE_NOCMD are superfluous and removed.
    
    We expand the testsuite and add 3 new regression tests of roughly
    the same form but with a couple of nested levels.
    
    On top of the 3 new tests we add fork validation to the WRDE_NOCMD
    testing. If any forks are detected during the execution of a wordexp()
    call with WRDE_NOCMD, the test is marked as failed. This is slightly
    heuristic since vfork might be used in the future, but it provides a
    higher level of assurance that no shells were executed as part of
    command substitution with WRDE_NOCMD in effect. In addition it doesn't
    require libpthread or libdl, instead we use the public implementation
    namespace function __register_atfork (already part of the public ABI
    for libpthread).
    
    Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.

    posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen needs to copy the path argument (BZ 17048)
    
    POSIX requires that we make a copy, so we allocate a new string
    and free it in posix_spawn_file_actions_destroy.

    BZ #15754: CVE-2013-4788
    
    The pointer guard used for pointer mangling was not initialized for
    static applications resulting in the security feature being disabled.
    The pointer guard is now correctly initialized to a random value for
    static applications. Existing static applications need to be
    recompiled to take advantage of the fix.
    
    The test tst-ptrguard1-static and tst-ptrguard1 add regression
    coverage to ensure the pointer guards are sufficiently random
    and initialized to a default value.

    Check for integer overflow in cache size computation in strcoll
    
    strcoll is implemented using a cache for indices and weights of
    collation sequences in the strings so that subsequent passes do not
    have to search through collation data again.  For very large string
    inputs, the cache size computation could overflow.  In such a case,
    use the fallback function that does not cache indices and weights of
    collation sequences.
    
    Fixes CVE-2012-4412.

    CVE-2013-2207, BZ #15755: Disable pt_chown.
    
    The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another
    user's pseudo-terminal.
    
    Pre-conditions for the attack:
    
     * Attacker with local user account
     * Kernel with FUSE support
     * "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf
     * Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts
    
    Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file
    descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and
    trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current
    user does not own.  It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however.
    
    In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts
    is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building
    and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option
    to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own
    risk.
