Subject: [PATCH] io_uring/rsrc: fix slab-out-of-bounds in io_buffer_register_bvec
From: Evan Lambert <veyga@...gax.dev>
The function io_buffer_register_bvec() calculates the allocation size
for the io_mapped_ubuf based on blk_rq_nr_phys_segments(rq). This
function calculates the number of scatter-gather elements after megine
physically contiguous pages.
However, the subsequent loop uses rq_for_each_bvec() to populate the
array, which iterates over every individual bio_vec in the request,
regardless of physical contiguity.
If a request has multiple bio_vec entries that are physically
contiguous, blk_rq_nr_phys_segments() returns a value smaller than
the total number of bio_vecs. This leads to a slab-out-of-bounds write.
The path is reachable from userspace via the ublk driver when a server
issues a UBLK_IO_REGISTER_IO_BUF command. This requires the
UBLK_F_SUPPORT_ZERO_COPY flag which is protected by CAP_NET_ADMIN.
Fix this by calculating the total number of bio_vecs by iterating
over the request's bios and summing their bi_vcnt.
