CVE-2012-5513 : Détail

Le modèle EPSS produit un score de probabilité compris entre 0 et 1 (0 et 100 %). Plus la note est élevée, plus la probabilité qu'une vulnérabilité soit exploitée est grande.

Le percentile est utilisé pour classer les CVE en fonction de leur score EPSS. Par exemple, une CVE dans le 95e percentile selon son score EPSS est plus susceptible d'être exploitée que 95 % des autres CVE. Ainsi, le percentile sert à comparer le score EPSS d'une CVE par rapport à d'autres CVE.

Source: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1184 This bug report describes a vulnerability in memory_exchange() that permits PV guest kernels to write to an arbitrary virtual address with hypervisor privileges. The vulnerability was introduced through a broken fix for CVE-2012-5513 / XSA-29. The fix for CVE-2012-5513 / XSA-29 introduced the following check in the memory_exchange() hypercall handler: if ( !guest_handle_okay(exch.in.extent_start, exch.in.nr_extents) || !guest_handle_okay(exch.out.extent_start, exch.out.nr_extents) ) { rc = -EFAULT; goto fail_early; } guest_handle_okay() calls array_access_ok(), which calls access_ok(), which is implemented as follows: /* * Valid if in +ve half of 48-bit address space, or above * Xen-reserved area. * This is also valid for range checks (addr, addr+size). As long * as the start address is outside the Xen-reserved area then we * will access a non-canonical address (and thus fault) before * ever reaching VIRT_START. */ #define __addr_ok(addr) \ (((unsigned long)(addr) < (1UL<<47)) || \ ((unsigned long)(addr) >= HYPERVISOR_VIRT_END)) #define access_ok(addr, size) \ (__addr_ok(addr) || is_compat_arg_xlat_range(addr, size)) As the comment states, access_ok() only checks the address, not the size, if the address points to guest memory, based on the assumption that any caller of access_ok() will access guest memory linearly, starting at the supplied address. Callers that want to access a subrange of the memory referenced by a guest handle are supposed to use guest_handle_subrange_okay(), which takes an additional start offset parameter, instead of guest_handle_okay(). memory_exchange() uses guest_handle_okay(), but only accesses the guest memory arrays referenced by exch.in.extent_start and exch.out.extent_start starting at exch.nr_exchanged, a 64-bit offset. The intent behind exch.nr_exchanged is that guests always set it to 0 and nonzero values are only set when a hypercall has to be restarted because of preemption, but this isn't enforced. Therefore, by invoking this hypercall with crafted arguments, it is possible to write to an arbitrary memory location that is encoded as exch.out.extent_start + 8 * exch.nr_exchanged where exch.out.extent_start points to guest memory and exch.nr_exchanged is an attacker-chosen 64-bit value. I have attached a proof of concept. This PoC demonstrates the issue by overwriting the first 8 bytes of the IDT entry for #PF, causing the next pagefault to doublefault. To run the PoC, unpack it in a normal 64-bit PV domain and run the following commands in the domain as root: root@pv-guest:~# cd crashpoc root@pv-guest:~/crashpoc# make -C /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) make: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.0-66-generic' LD /root/crashpoc/built-in.o CC [M] /root/crashpoc/module.o nasm -f elf64 -o /root/crashpoc/native.o /root/crashpoc/native.asm LD [M] /root/crashpoc/test.o Building modules, stage 2.

I strongly recommend changing the semantics of access_ok() so that it guarantees that any access to an address inside the specified range is valid. Alternatively, add some prefix, e.g. "UNSAFE_", to the names of access_ok() and appropriate wrappers to prevent people from using these functions improperly. Currently, in my opinion, the function name access_ok() is misleading.
