Title
mctp: serial: handle zero-length frames to prevent rx buffer overflow
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mctp: serial: handle zero-length frames to prevent rx buffer overflow The MCTP serial receive state machine reads a frame length byte in mctp_serial_push_header() case 2 and validates it upper-bound-only: if (c > MCTP_SERIAL_FRAME_MTU) { dev->rxstate = STATE_ERR; } else { dev->rxlen = c; dev->rxpos = 0; dev->rxstate = STATE_DATA; ... } A length of zero passes this check, so rxlen is set to 0 and the state machine advances to STATE_DATA. In mctp_serial_push() STATE_DATA, the incoming byte is stored and rxpos incremented before the terminator is dev->rxbuf[dev->rxpos] = c; dev->rxpos++; dev->rxstate = STATE_DATA; if (dev->rxpos == dev->rxlen) { dev->rxpos = 0; dev->rxstate = STATE_TRAILER; } With rxlen == 0 the "rxpos == rxlen" terminator can never fire (rxpos is already 1 on the first data byte), so subsequent bytes are written past the end of the fixed 74-byte rxbuf, which is the last member of the netdev private area. Every following data byte is an attacker-controlled 1-byte out-of-bounds heap write, and the overflow continues until a frame (0x7e) or escape byte resets the parser -- effectively unbounded. Reaching this requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach the N_MCTP line discipline and bring the resulting mctpserialN netdev up, after which the bytes arrive via the tty receive path. Route a zero-length frame straight to STATE_TRAILER instead of STATE_DATA. The trailer/framing bytes are still consumed, and the frame resolves to a zero-length skb that the MCTP core rejects; the parser never enters STATE_DATA with rxlen == 0, so the out-of-bounds write can no longer occur. KASAN, on a frame of 0x7e 0x01 0x00 followed by data bytes (before this change): UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/net/mctp/mctp-serial.c:370 index 74 is out of range for type 'u8 [74]' BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in mctp_serial_tty_receive_buf Write of size 1 at addr ... by task kworker/u16:0 mctp_serial_tty_receive_buf tty_ldisc_receive_buf flush_to_ldisc Allocated by task 152: alloc_netdev_mqs mctp_serial_open v2: route zero-length frames to STATE_TRAILER instead of STATE_ERR so the trailer/framing bytes are still consumed (Jeremy Kerr).

Every following data byte is an attacker-controlled\n1-byte out-of-bounds heap write, and the overflow continues until a\nframe (0x7e) or escape byte resets the parser -- effectively unbounded.\n\nReaching this requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach the N_MCTP line\ndiscipline and bring the resulting mctpserialN netdev up, after which\nthe bytes arrive via the tty receive path.\n\nRoute a zero-length frame straight to STATE_TRAILER instead of\nSTATE_DATA. The trailer/framing bytes are still consumed, and the frame\nresolves to a zero-length skb that the MCTP core rejects; the parser\nnever enters STATE_DATA with rxlen == 0, so the out-of-bounds write can\nno longer occur.\n\nKASAN, on a frame of 0x7e 0x01 0x00 followed by data bytes (before this\nchange):\n\n  UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/net/mctp/mctp-serial.c:370\n  index 74 is out of range for type \u0027u8 [74]\u0027\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in mctp_serial_tty_receive_buf\n  Write of size 1 at addr ... by task kworker/u16:0\n   mctp_serial_tty_receive_buf\n   tty_ldisc_receive_buf\n   flush_to_ldisc\n  Allocated by task 152:\n   alloc_netdev_mqs\n   mctp_serial_open\n\nv2: route zero-length frames to STATE_TRAILER instead of STATE_ERR so\n    the trailer/framing bytes are still consumed (Jeremy Kerr).\n\nFound by 0sec automated security-research tooling (https://0sec.ai)."
