H A D | uprobes.c | 2ded0980 Thu Nov 07 12:41:57 CST 2013 Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> uprobes: Fix the memory out of bound overwrite in copy_insn()
1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read the 2nd page first.
2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines.
3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size.
In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn.
Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we do this only to catch the obvious mistakes.
Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations.
Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't know how many bytes were actually read anyway.
