LIN1021-13163 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2024-57890

Created: Jan 15, 2025    Updated: May 27, 2025
Resolved Date: May 21, 2025
Found In Version: 10.21.20.1
Fix Version: 10.21.20.25
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 21
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/uverbs: Prevent integer overflow issue

In the expression "cmd.wqe_size * cmd.wr_count", both variables are u32
values that come from the user so the multiplication can lead to integer
wrapping.  Then we pass the result to uverbs_request_next_ptr() which also
could potentially wrap.  The "cmd.sge_count * sizeof(struct ib_uverbs_sge)"
multiplication can also overflow on 32bit systems although it's fine on
64bit systems.

This patch does two things.  First, I've re-arranged the condition in
uverbs_request_next_ptr() so that the use controlled variable "len" is on
one side of the comparison by itself without any math.  Then I've modified
all the callers to use size_mul() for the multiplications.
