Subject: [34-longterm 226/247] agp: fix OOM and buffer overflow
From: Vasiliy Kulikov <segoon@...nwall.com>
-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------
commit b522f02184b413955f3bc952e3776ce41edc6355 upstream.
page_count is copied from userspace. agp_allocate_memory() tries to
check whether this number is too big, but doesn't take into account the
wrap case. Also agp_create_user_memory() doesn't check whether
alloc_size is calculated from num_agp_pages variable without overflow.
This may lead to allocation of too small buffer with following buffer
overflow.
Another problem in agp code is not addressed in the patch - kernel memory
exhaustion (AGPIOC_RESERVE and AGPIOC_ALLOCATE ioctls). It is not checked
whether requested pid is a pid of the caller (no check in agpioc_reserve_wrap()).
Each allocation is limited to 16KB, though, there is no per-process limit.
This might lead to OOM situation, which is not even solved in case of the
caller death by OOM killer - the memory is allocated for another (faked) process.
