| Subject: CVE-2024-38568: drivers/perf: hisi: hns3: Fix out-of-bound access when valid event group |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| drivers/perf: hisi: hns3: Fix out-of-bound access when valid event group |
| |
| The perf tool allows users to create event groups through following |
| cmd [1], but the driver does not check whether the array index is out |
| of bounds when writing data to the event_group array. If the number of |
| events in an event_group is greater than HNS3_PMU_MAX_HW_EVENTS, the |
| memory write overflow of event_group array occurs. |
| |
| Add array index check to fix the possible array out of bounds violation, |
| and return directly when write new events are written to array bounds. |
| |
| There are 9 different events in an event_group. |
| [1] perf stat -e '{pmu/event1/, ... ,pmu/event9/} |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-38568 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
