From c4365735a7d38f4355c6f77e6670d3972315f7c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Murilo Opsfelder Araujo Date: Fri, 5 Jan 2018 11:32:41 -0200 Subject: [PATCH] block/nbd: fix segmentation fault when .desc is not null-terminated The find_desc_by_name() from util/qemu-option.c relies on the .name not being NULL to call strcmp(). This check becomes unsafe when the list is not NULL-terminated, which is the case of nbd_runtime_opts in block/nbd.c, and can result in segmentation fault when strcmp() tries to access an invalid memory: #0 0x00007fff8c75f7d4 in __strcmp_power9 () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x00000000102d3ec8 in find_desc_by_name (desc=0x1036d6f0, name=0x28e46670 "server.path") at util/qemu-option.c:166 #2 0x00000000102d93e0 in qemu_opts_absorb_qdict (opts=0x28e47a80, qdict=0x28e469a0, errp=0x7fffec247c98) at util/qemu-option.c:1026 #3 0x000000001012a2e4 in nbd_open (bs=0x28e42290, options=0x28e469a0, flags=24578, errp=0x7fffec247d80) at block/nbd.c:406 #4 0x00000000100144e8 in bdrv_open_driver (bs=0x28e42290, drv=0x1036e070 , node_name=0x0, options=0x28e469a0, open_flags=24578, errp=0x7fffec247f50) at block.c:1135 #5 0x0000000010015b04 in bdrv_open_common (bs=0x28e42290, file=0x0, options=0x28e469a0, errp=0x7fffec247f50) at block.c:1395 >From gdb, the desc[i].name was not NULL and resulted in strcmp() accessing an invalid memory: >>> p desc[5] $8 = { name = 0x1037f098 "R27A", type = 1561964883, help = 0xc0bbb23e , def_value_str = 0x2 } >>> p desc[6] $9 = { name = 0x103dac78 <__gcov0.do_qemu_init_bdrv_nbd_init> "\001", type = 272101528, help = 0x29ec0b754403e31f , def_value_str = 0x81f343b9 } This patch fixes the segmentation fault in strcmp() by adding a NULL element at the end of nbd_runtime_opts.desc list, which is the common practice to most of other structs like runtime_opts in block/null.c. Thus, the desc[i].name != NULL check becomes safe because it will not evaluate to true when .desc list reached its end. Reported-by: R.
