<content type='text'>
commit 137d01df511b3afe1f05499aea05f3bafc0fb221 upstream.

What happens is that a write to /dev/sg is given a request with non-zero
-&gt;iovec_count combined with zero -&gt;dxfer_len.  Or with -&gt;dxferp pointing
to an array full of empty iovecs.

Having write permission to /dev/sg shouldn't be equivalent to the
ability to trigger BUG_ON() while holding spinlocks...

Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.

[ The BUG_ON() got changed to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but this fixes the
  underlying issue.  - Linus ]

commit a0ac402cfcdc904f9772e1762b3fda112dcc56a0 upstream.

Both damn things interpret userland pointers embedded into the payload;
worse, they are actually traversing those.  Leaving aside the bad
API design, this is very much _not_ safe to call with KERNEL_DS.
Bail out early if that happens.

<title>sg: Fix double-free when drives detach during SG_IO</title>

<id>urn:sha1:08f231da62d5a411ac5594409e76606e80107e02</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f3951a3709ff50990bf3e188c27d346792103432 upstream.

In sg_common_write(), we free the block request and return -ENODEV if
the device is detached in the middle of the SG_IO ioctl().

Unfortunately, sg_finish_rem_req() also tries to free srp-&gt;rq, so we
end up freeing rq-&gt;cmd in the already free rq object, and then free
the object itself out from under the current user.

This ends up corrupting random memory via the list_head on the rq
object. The most common crash trace I saw is this:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at block/blk-core.c:1420!
  Call Trace:
  [&lt;ffffffff81281eab&gt;] blk_put_request+0x5b/0x80

    RIP [&lt;ffffffff81281e04&gt;] __blk_put_request+0x154/0x1a0

The solution is straightforward: just set srp-&gt;rq to NULL in the
failure branch so that sg_finish_rem_req() doesn't attempt to re-free
it.

Additionally, since sg_rq_end_io() will never be called on the object
when this happens, we need to free memory backing -&gt;cmd if it isn't
embedded in the object itself.

KASAN was extremely helpful in finding the root cause of this bug.

commit 5ecee0a3ee8d74b6950cb41e8989b0c2174568d4 upstream.

One of the strange things that the original sg driver did was let the
user provide both a data-out buffer (it followed the sg_header+cdb)
_and_ specify a reply length greater than zero. What happened was that
the user data-out buffer was copied into some kernel buffers and then
the mid level was told a read type operation would take place with the
data from the device overwriting the same kernel buffers. The user would
then read those kernel buffers back into the user space.

From what I can tell, the above action was broken by commit fad7f01e61bf
("sg: set dxferp to NULL for READ with the older SG interface") in 2008
and syzkaller found that out recently.

Make sure that a user space pointer is passed through when data follows
the sg_header structure and command.  Fix the abnormal case when a
non-zero reply_len is also given.

commit 451a2886b6bf90e2fb378f7c46c655450fb96e81 upstream.

unfortunately, allowing an arbitrary 16bit value means a possibility of
overflow in the calculation of total number of pages in bio_map_user_iov() -
we rely on there being no more than PAGE_SIZE members of sum in the
first loop there.  If that sum wraps around, we end up allocating
too small array of pointers to pages and it's easy to overflow it in
the second loop.
