Subject: [PATCH] amd64-agp: fix arbitrary kernel memory writes
Date: Wed, 29 May 2019 12:52:01 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1559105521-27053-1-git-send-email-92siuyang@gmail.com> (raw)
pg_start is copied from userspace on AGPIOC_BIND and AGPIOC_UNBIND ioctl
cmds of agp_ioctl() and passed to agpioc_bind_wrap(). As said in the
comment, (pg_start + mem->page_count) may wrap in case of AGPIOC_BIND,
and it is not checked at all in case of AGPIOC_UNBIND. As a result, user
with sufficient privileges (usually "video" group) may generate either
local DoS or privilege escalation.
See commit 194b3da873fd ("agp: fix arbitrary kernel memory writes")
for details.
