Re: NULL pointer dereference when writing fuzzed data to /dev/uhid

From: Anatoly Trosinenko <hidden>
Date: 2019-01-04 13:47:20
Also in: lkml

I wanted to tell you that I started investigating the other private
report you sent us, but couldn't find the time to properly come with a
fix as the fuzzed data is hard to discriminate from valid data.
Oops, I thought I was "over securing" these issues and everyone
ignored them since I heard default policy here is to not send reports
privately without a good reason, so I re-evaluated them and sent
publicly...

OTOH these ones seem to be not too severe: on the first glance they
require a physical or root access, and even if they don't, *these
ones* are only NULL dereferences.

Best regards
Anatoly

Hello,

When writing the attached file to /dev/uhid, a NULL dereference occurs
in kernel. As I understand, the problem is not UHID-specific, but is
related to HID subsystem.
Thanks for the report.
I wanted to tell you that I started investigating the other private
report you sent us, but couldn't find the time to properly come with a
fix as the fuzzed data is hard to discriminate from valid data.

A couple of notes though:
- writing to uhid needs to be done by root. Any distribution that
doesn't enforce that is doomed to have several security issues
- we could somehow reproduce those fuzzed data on a USB or Bluetooth
connection, but that would require physical access to the device, so
you are doomed also
- last IIRC, there was some attempts by the ChromeOS team to allow
access to the HID stack from the Chrome plugins, I don't know if this
is able to generate the issues.

On the specifics reported here:

How to reproduce:
1) Checkout the fresh master branch of the Linux kernel (tested on
commit 96d4f267e)
2) Compile it with the attached config (kvm-xfstests capable)
3) Take one of reproducers and execute
cat /vtmp/repro > /dev/uhid

What happens:

For chicony.bin:

This driver expects the device to be connected on USB, and you are
triggering the oops because you are on uhid.
I am chasing the USB dependencies in most drivers, but this is a hard
task to do when I do not have access to the actual devices.

I guess one way of fixing that is to add a check for the actual
transport driver during probe:
hid_is_using_ll_driver(hdev, &usb_hid_driver)

Patches are welcome :)

In a sense, it's good to have a fault there because this was added to
make sure we do not blindly accept any data. The fact that it doesn't
fail gracefully is a sign that there is something else.
Maybe Roderick could have a look?
