Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/mm: Disallow vsyscall page read for copy_from_kernel_nofault()
When trying to use copy_from_kernel_nofault() to read vsyscall page
through a bpf program, the following oops was reported:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffff600000
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
PGD 3231067 P4D 3231067 PUD 3233067 PMD 3235067 PTE 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
CPU: 1 PID: 20390 Comm: test_progs ...... 6.7.0+ #58
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) ......
RIP: 0010:copy_from_kernel_nofault+0x6f/0x110

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
The oops is triggered when:
1) A bpf program uses bpf_probe_read_kernel() to read from the vsyscall
page and invokes copy_from_kernel_nofault() which in turn calls
__get_user_asm().
2) Because the vsyscall page address is not readable from kernel space,
a page fault exception is triggered accordingly.
3) handle_page_fault() considers the vsyscall page address as a user
space address instead of a kernel space address. This results in the
fix-up setup by bpf not being applied and a page_fault_oops() is invoked
due to SMAP.
Considering handle_page_fault() has already considered the vsyscall page
address as a userspace address, fix the problem by disallowing vsyscall
page read for copy_from_kernel_nofault().
