[PATCH net v3 3/3] ieee802154: ca8210: validate data_ind length upfront in ca8210_skb_rx()
From: Hui Peng <hidden>

lkml, stable
Subsystem:
ca8210 ieee-802.15.4 radio driver, ieee 802.15.4 subsystem, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers:

In ca8210_skb_rx(), data_ind is read at offsets 22 (msdulen), 23
(mpdulinkquality), 29 + msdulen (hdr.sec.level), 30..39 + msdulen
(security header), and 29 .. 29 + msdulen (payload) without verifying
that the received SPI frame length len covers those offsets, causing an
out-of-bounds read when msdulen exceeds len - 30:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ca8210_skb_rx.constprop.0.isra.0+0x137/0x160
Read of size 64 at addr ffff888006453ddd by task init/1
Call Trace:
<TASK>
dump_stack_lvl+0x70/0xa0
print_report+0x153/0x4c6
kasan_report+0xf1/0x120
kasan_check_range+0x125/0x200

ca8210_skb_rx.constprop.0.isra.0+0x137/0x160
ca8210_net_rx+0x96/0xc0
...
The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888006453dc0
which belongs to the cache kmalloc-32 of size 32
The buggy address is located 29 bytes inside of
allocated 32-byte region [ffff888006453dc0, ffff888006453de0)
Consolidate all length and msdulen validations into a single upfront check
at the beginning of ca8210_skb_rx() before allocating the skb.
Tested in QEMU with KASAN enabled by passing a short data_ind buffer with
msdulen = 64 and len = 30 into ca8210_skb_rx().

Changes in v3:
- No changes.
Changes in v2:
- Split out as patch 3/3.
- Consolidated all length checks in ca8210_skb_rx() into a single place
at the beginning of the function before dev_alloc_skb() and dropped the
unrelated hdr.seq assignment as requested by Miquel Raynal.
