commit 8f89c007b6dec16a1793cb88de88fcc02117bbbc upstream.

shmat()'s SHM_REMAP option forbids passing a nil address for; this is in
fact the very first thing we check for.  Andrea reported that for
SHM_RND|SHM_REMAP cases we can end up bypassing the initial addr check,
but we need to check again if the address was rounded down to nil.  As
of this patch, such cases will return -EINVAL.

commit a73ab244f0dad8fffb3291b905f73e2d3eaa7c00 upstream.

Patch series "ipc/shm: shmat() fixes around nil-page".

These patches fix two issues reported[1] a while back by Joe and Andrea
around how shmat(2) behaves with nil-page.

The first reverts a commit that it was incorrectly thought that mapping
nil-page (address=0) was a no no with MAP_FIXED.  This is not the case,
with the exception of SHM_REMAP; which is address in the second patch.

I chose two patches because it is easier to backport and it explicitly
reverts bogus behaviour.  Both patches ought to be in -stable and ltp
testcases need updated (the added testcase around the cve can be
modified to just test for SHM_RND|SHM_REMAP).

[1] lkml.kernel.org/r/20180430172152.nfa564pvgpk3ut7p@linux-n805

This patch (of 2):

Commit 95e91b831f87 ("ipc/shm: Fix shmat mmap nil-page protection")
worked on the idea that we should not be mapping as root addr=0 and
MAP_FIXED.  However, it was reported that this scenario is in fact
valid, thus making the patch both bogus and breaks userspace as well.

For example X11's libint10.so relies on shmat(1, SHM_RND) for lowmem
initialization[1].

<title>ipc/shm: fix use-after-free of shm file via remap_file_pages()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b7e06a79c2e3a7e16ad1ed4887cad9a103ca355d</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3f05317d9889ab75c7190dcd39491d2a97921984 upstream.

syzbot reported a use-after-free of shm_file_data(file)-&gt;file-&gt;f_op in
shm_get_unmapped_area(), called via sys_remap_file_pages().

Unfortunately it couldn't generate a reproducer, but I found a bug which
I think caused it.  When remap_file_pages() is passed a full System V
shared memory segment, the memory is first unmapped, then a new map is
created using the -&gt;vm_file.  Between these steps, the shm ID can be
removed and reused for a new shm segment.  But, shm_mmap() only checks
whether the ID is currently valid before calling the underlying file's
-&gt;mmap(); it doesn't check whether it was reused.  Thus it can use the
wrong underlying file, one that was already freed.

Fix this by making the "outer" shm file (the one that gets put in
-&gt;vm_file) hold a reference to the real shm file, and by making
__shm_open() require that the file associated with the shm ID matches
the one associated with the "outer" file.

Taking the reference to the real shm file is needed to fully solve the
problem, since otherwise sfd-&gt;file could point to a freed file, which
then could be reallocated for the reused shm ID, causing the wrong shm
segment to be mapped (and without the required permission checks).

Commit 1ac0b6dec656 ("ipc/shm: handle removed segments gracefully in
shm_mmap()") almost fixed this bug, but it didn't go far enough because
it didn't consider the case where the shm ID is reused.

The following program usually reproduces this bug:

	#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/shm.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/syscall.h&gt;
	#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;

	int main()
	{
		int is_parent = (fork() != 0);
		srand(getpid());
		for (;;) {
			int id = shmget(0xF00F, 4096, IPC_CREAT|0700);
			if (is_parent) {
				void *addr = shmat(id, NULL, 0);
				usleep(rand() % 50);
				while (!syscall(__NR_remap_file_pages, addr, 4096, 0, 0, 0));
			} else {
				usleep(rand() % 50);
				shmctl(id, IPC_RMID, NULL);
			}
		}
	}

It causes the following NULL pointer dereference due to a 'struct file'
being used while it's being freed.  (I couldn't actually get a KASAN
use-after-free splat like in the syzbot report.  But I think it's
possible with this bug; it would just take a more extraordinary race...)

<title>ipc: msg, make msgrcv work with LONG_MIN</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bab93a6196224c862c679a1b1e97be8ceef926a5</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 999898355e08ae3b92dfd0a08db706e0c6703d30 upstream.

When LONG_MIN is passed to msgrcv, one would expect to recieve any
message.  But convert_mode does *msgtyp = -*msgtyp and -LONG_MIN is
undefined.  In particular, with my gcc -LONG_MIN produces -LONG_MIN
again.

So handle this case properly by assigning LONG_MAX to *msgtyp if
LONG_MIN was specified as msgtyp to msgrcv.

This code:
  long msg[] = { 100, 200 };
  int m = msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT | 0644);
  msgsnd(m, &amp;msg, sizeof(msg), 0);
  msgrcv(m, &amp;msg, sizeof(msg), LONG_MIN, 0);

produces currently nothing:

  msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT|0644)     = 65538
  msgsnd(65538, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, 0) = 0
  msgrcv(65538, ...

Except a UBSAN warning:

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ipc/msg.c:745:13
  negation of -9223372036854775808 cannot be represented in type 'long int':

With the patch, I see what I expect:

  msgget(IPC_PRIVATE, IPC_CREAT|0644)     = 0
  msgsnd(0, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, 0) = 0
  msgrcv(0, {100, "\310\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16, -9223372036854775808, 0) = 16

<content type='text'>
commit f991af3daabaecff34684fd51fac80319d1baad1 upstream.

The retry logic for netlink_attachskb() inside sys_mq_notify()
is nasty and vulnerable:

1) The sock refcnt is already released when retry is needed
2) The fd is controllable by user-space because we already
   release the file refcnt

so we when retry but the fd has been just closed by user-space
during this small window, we end up calling netlink_detachskb()
on the error path which releases the sock again, later when
the user-space closes this socket a use-after-free could be
triggered.

Setting 'sock' to NULL here should be sufficient to fix it.

<content type='text'>
commit 95e91b831f87ac8e1f8ed50c14d709089b4e01b8 upstream.

The issue is described here, with a nice testcase:

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192931

The problem is that shmat() calls do_mmap_pgoff() with MAP_FIXED, and
the address rounded down to 0.  For the regular mmap case, the
protection mentioned above is that the kernel gets to generate the
address -- arch_get_unmapped_area() will always check for MAP_FIXED and
return that address.  So by the time we do security_mmap_addr(0) things
get funky for shmat().

The testcase itself shows that while a regular user crashes, root will
not have a problem attaching a nil-page.  There are two possible fixes
to this.  The first, and which this patch does, is to simply allow root
to crash as well -- this is also regular mmap behavior, ie when hacking
up the testcase and adding mmap(...  |MAP_FIXED).  While this approach
is the safer option, the second alternative is to ignore SHM_RND if the
rounded address is 0, thus only having MAP_SHARED flags.  This makes the
behavior of shmat() identical to the mmap() case.  The downside of this
is obviously user visible, but does make sense in that it maintains
semantics after the round-down wrt 0 address and mmap.

Passes shm related ltp tests.

<title>ipc/sem.c: fix complex_count vs. simple op race</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 5864a2fd3088db73d47942370d0f7210a807b9bc upstream.

Commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") introduced a
race:

sem_lock has a fast path that allows parallel simple operations.
There are two reasons why a simple operation cannot run in parallel:
 - a non-simple operations is ongoing (sma-&gt;sem_perm.lock held)
 - a complex operation is sleeping (sma-&gt;complex_count != 0)

As both facts are stored independently, a thread can bypass the current
checks by sleeping in the right positions.  See below for more details
(or kernel bugzilla 105651).

The patch fixes that by creating one variable (complex_mode)
that tracks both reasons why parallel operations are not possible.

The patch also updates stale documentation regarding the locking.

With regards to stable kernels:
The patch is required for all kernels that include the
commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") (3.10?)

The alternative is to revert the patch that introduced the race.

The patch is safe for backporting, i.e. it makes no assumptions
about memory barriers in spin_unlock_wait().

Background:
Here is the race of the current implementation:

Thread A: (simple op)
- does the first "sma-&gt;complex_count == 0" test

Thread B: (complex op)
- does sem_lock(): This includes an array scan. But the scan can't
  find Thread A, because Thread A does not own sem-&gt;lock yet.
- the thread does the operation, increases complex_count,
  drops sem_lock, sleeps

Thread A:
- spin_lock(&amp;sem-&gt;lock), spin_is_locked(sma-&gt;sem_perm.lock)
- sleeps before the complex_count test

Thread C: (complex op)
- does sem_lock (no array scan, complex_count==1)
- wakes up Thread B.
- decrements complex_count

Thread A:
- does the complex_count test

Bug:
Now both thread A and thread C operate on the same array, without
any synchronization.

Manfred Spraul suggested to fix sem.c as well and Davidlohr Bueso to
only use ipc_rcu_free in case of security allocation failure in newary()

<title>ipc/shm: handle removed segments gracefully in shm_mmap()</title>

commit 1ac0b6dec656f3f78d1c3dd216fad84cb4d0a01e upstream.

remap_file_pages(2) emulation can reach file which represents removed
IPC ID as long as a memory segment is mapped.  It breaks expectations of
IPC subsystem.

Test case (rewritten to be more human readable, originally autogenerated
by syzkaller[1]):

	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/ipc.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/mman.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/shm.h&gt;

	#define PAGE_SIZE 4096

	int main()
	{
		int id;
		void *p;

		id = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0);
		p = shmat(id, NULL, 0);
		shmctl(id, IPC_RMID, NULL);
		remap_file_pages(p, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0, 7, 0);

	        return 0;
	}

The patch changes shm_mmap() and code around shm_lock() to propagate
locking error back to caller of shm_mmap().

<title>ipc,msg: drop dst nil validation in copy_msg</title>

d0edd8528362 ("ipc: convert invalid scenarios to use WARN_ON") relaxed the
nil dst parameter check, originally being a full BUG_ON.  However, this
check seems quite unnecessary when the only purpose is for
ceckpoint/restore (MSG_COPY flag):

o The copy variable is set initially to nil, apparently as a way of
  ensuring that prepare_copy is previously called.  Which is in fact done,
  unconditionally at the beginning of do_msgrcv.

o There is no concurrency with 'copy' (stack allocated in do_msgrcv).

Furthermore, any errors in 'copy' (and thus prepare_copy/copy_msg) should
always handled by IS_ERR() family.  Therefore remove this check altogether
as it can never occur with the current users.
