Subject: Linux kernel pktcdvd and rawdevice ioctl break user space limit vulnerability


Synopsis:  Linux kernel pktcdvd and rawdevice ioctl break user space 
						limit vulnerability
Product:   Linux kernel
Version:   2.6 up to and including 2.6.12-rc4
Vendor:    http://www.kernel.org/
URL:       
CVE:       CAN-2005-1589
Severity:  local(7)
Date:      May 16, 2005


Issue:
======

Two locally exploitable flaws have been found in the Linux rawdevice and 
pktcdvd block device ioctl handler that allows local users to gain root 
privileges and also execute arbitrary code at kernel privilege level.


Details:
========

The Linux kernel contains pktcdvd and rawdevice block device components. 
Due to the missing check Pktcdvd and rawdevice ioctl handler parameter,
the process can break user space limit and  execute arbitrary code at 
kernel privilege level.


Discussion:
=============

The vulnerable  code  resides  in  drivers/block/pktcdvd.c  in  your  
preferable version of the Linux kernel source code tree:

static int pkt_ioctl(struct inode *inode, struct file *file, unsigned 
					int cmd, unsigned long arg)
{
	struct pktcdvd_device *pd = inode->i_bdev->bd_disk->private_data;

	VPRINTK("pkt_ioctl: cmd %x, dev %d:%d\n", cmd, imajor(inode), 
							iminor(inode));
	BUG_ON(!pd);

	switch (cmd) {
	/*
	 * forward selected CDROM ioctls to CD-ROM, for UDF
	 */
	case CDROMMULTISESSION:
	case CDROMREADTOCENTRY:
	case CDROM_LAST_WRITTEN:
	case CDROM_SEND_PACKET:
	case SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND:
[*]		return ioctl_by_bdev(pd->bdev, cmd, arg);

	case CDROMEJECT:
		/*
		 * The door gets locked when the device is opened, so we
		 * have to unlock it or else the eject command fails.
		 */
		pkt_lock_door(pd, 0);
[*]		return ioctl_by_bdev(pd->bdev, cmd, arg);

	default:

As can be seen from [*] the arg variable supplied to  the  ioctl_by_bdev()
function  is not checked and user can input arg > TASK_SIZE value.


fs/block_dev.c
int ioctl_by_bdev(struct block_device *bdev, unsigned cmd, unsigned long arg)
{
	int res;
	mm_segment_t old_fs = get_fs();
[**]	set_fs(KERNEL_DS);
	res = blkdev_ioctl(bdev->bd_inode, NULL, cmd, arg);
	set_fs(old_fs);
	return res;
}

However, for also support kernel space parameters ,ioctl_by_bdev() call [**] 
set_fs(KERNEL_DS) to access parameters in kernel space . So if 
ioctl_by_bdev() parameter arg > TASK_SIZE,the process can break user space 
limit and rewrite kernel space data. Local user can execute arbitrary code 
at kernel privilege level.

This exploit require user can read the block device.


Rawdevice is similar above

drivers/char/raw.c
static int
raw_ioctl(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp,
		  unsigned int command, unsigned long arg)
{
	struct block_device *bdev = filp->private_data;

[*]	return ioctl_by_bdev(bdev, command, arg);
}
