In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: bound interrupt-vector register fill to the allocated array
idpf get reg intr vecs() fills the caller-allocated reg vals[] array from
the VIRTCHNL2 OP ALLOC VECTORS reply in adapter->req vec chunks, bounding
its inner loop only by the per-chunk num vectors. The array is sized
separately: idpf intr reg init() allocates
kzalloc objs(struct idpf vec regs, total vecs) from
caps.num allocated vectors and only checks the returned count after the
fill. The sum of per-chunk num vectors is never reconciled against
total vecs, so a reply with a small num allocated vectors but chunks
summing higher writes past the end of reg vals[].
Impact: a control plane (a PF or hypervisor device model) that returns a
VIRTCHNL2 OP ALLOC VECTORS reply whose per-chunk num vectors sum exceeds
num allocated vectors writes struct idpf vec regs entries past the end of
the reg vals kmalloc allocation (KASAN slab-out-of-bounds write).
Bound the fill loop to the array capacity passed in by the callers,
mirroring the sibling idpf vport get q reg(). The existing
num regs < num vecs check then rejects an undersized reply without the
out-of-bounds write happening first.
