Title
net: deal with integer overflows in kmalloc_reserve()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: deal with integer overflows in kmalloc_reserve() Blamed commit changed: ptr = kmalloc(size); if (ptr) size = ksize(ptr); size = kmalloc_size_roundup(size); ptr = kmalloc(size); This allowed various crash as reported by syzbot [1] and Kyle Zeng. Problem is that if @size is bigger than 0x80000001, kmalloc_size_roundup(size) returns 2^32. kmalloc_reserve() uses a 32bit variable (obj_size), so 2^32 is truncated to 0. kmalloc(0) returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR which is not handled by skb allocations. Following trace can be triggered if a netdev->mtu is set close to 0x7fffffff We might in the future limit netdev->mtu to more sensible limit (like KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE). This patch is based on a syzbot report, and also a report and tentative fix from Kyle Zeng.

No race, memory-layout guess, or condition outside attacker control is involved.\nPR:L - Setting a huge MTU needs CAP_NET_ADMIN, but an unprivileged user obtains it over their own netns via `unshare -Urn`, and the always-present `lo` device has no max_mtu cap \u2014 verified working on a current kernel. Joining the multicast group that arms the IGMP timer needs no privileges at all.\nUI:N - The attacker performs every step themselves \u2014 namespace creation, MTU configuration, and the multicast join that arms the IGMP timer. No victim action is required.\nS:U - The corruption occurs within the kernel\u0027s own memory-management and skb handling, the same security authority as the vulnerable component. No VM, IOMMU, or hypervisor boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The skb is built with head=ZERO_SIZE_PTR and a ~4GB end offset, so skb_shared_info and packet data land at low, user-mappable addresses; on systems without SMAP/PAN (ARM/embedded/older x86, as in the arm64 syzbot report where the access actually reached user memory) the attacker can pre-map that page and have the kernel populate attacker-readable memory, and the resulting control over shinfo-\u003efrags gives an arbitrary kernel read primitive.\nI:H - This is an unbounded wild-write: the kernel memsets and then writes packet contents through a bogus head pointer at attacker-influenced offsets, and if skb_shared_info is placed in attacker-mapped memory the kernel dereferences attacker-controlled nr_frags/frags[]/frag_list/destructor_arg, yielding an arbitrary write and control-flow hijack primitive.\nA:H - In the common case the wild write hits an unmapped or SMAP-protected address from softirq (timer) context, producing an immediate kernel oops/panic as shown in the syzbot KASAN report. The crash is reliably reproducible by any local unprivileged user."
