  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nIB/isert: reject login PDUs declaring more data than was received\n\nisert_login_recv_done() records how many bytes the HCA actually placed in\nthe login buffer, but nothing compares that against the length the login\nPDU's BHS declares.  isert_rx_login_req() copies min(login_req_len,\nMAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS) bytes into login-\u003ereq_buf, and the login code then\nreads the declared length back out of that buffer - for the first PDU in\niscsi_target_locate_portal(),\n\n\tpayload_length = ntoh24(login_req-\u003edlength);\n\ttmpbuf = kmemdup_nul(login-\u003ereq_buf, payload_length, GFP_KERNEL);\n\nand for the ones after it in iscsi_decode_text_input(), reached from\niscsi_target_do_login().\n\nlogin-\u003ereq_buf is a fixed MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS (8192) byte allocation, so\nan initiator that declares more than it sends reads off the end of it,\nbefore authentication and with the length under its control:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80\n  Read of size 8193 at addr ffff8881056a8000 by task iscsi_np/167\n   __asan_memcpy+0x23/0x60\n   kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80\n   iscsi_target_locate_portal+0x48d/0x1180\n   iscsi_target_login_thread+0x19a9/0x3350\n  Allocated by task 167:\n   __kmalloc_cache_noprof+0x158/0x370\n   iscsi_target_login_thread+0x971/0x3350\n  which belongs to the cache kmalloc-8k of size 8192\n  allocated 8192-byte region\n\nFalsifying the second login PDU instead reaches the other reader, on the\nsame buffer:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80\n  Read of size 8193 at addr ffff888104d10000 by task kworker/1:1/50\n  Workqueue: isert_login_wq iscsi_target_do_login_rx\n   __asan_memcpy+0x23/0x60\n   kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80\n   iscsi_decode_text_input+0xc6/0x11c0\n   iscsi_target_do_login+0x261/0x1470\n   iscsi_target_do_login_rx+0x51d/0x7d0\n\niscsit over TCP is not exposed: iscsit_get_login_rx() validates the\ndeclared length with iscsi_target_check_login_request() and then reads\nexactly that many bytes off the socket, so the declared length governs\nhow much arrives rather than how much is copied out of an already-filled\nbuffer.  isert does not call iscsi_target_check_login_request() at all.\n\nReject a login PDU whose declared DataSegmentLength exceeds what was\nreceived, in both paths that reach isert_rx_login_req():\nisert_get_login_rx() for the first login PDU and isert_login_recv_done()\nfor the ones after it.  dlength \u003c= login_req_len is allowed because the\nreceived count can include up to three bytes of iSCSI padding.\n\nOnce the check is in place the copy out can no longer exceed the copy in:\nthe posted login SGE is ISER_RX_PAYLOAD_SIZE, so login_req_len cannot\nexceed MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS and the min() in isert_rx_login_req() is\nlogin_req_len.\n\nLike the existing short-PDU check added by 29e7b925ae6d, the reject in\nisert_login_recv_done() returns without completing login_req_comp, so a\nmalformed subsequent PDU leaves the login to be torn down by the login\ntimer rather than failing immediately.  The first-PDU path returns an\nerror and fails straight away.\n\nReproduced on 7.2.0-rc4 with soft-RoCE (rdma_rxe) under KASAN, using an\ninitiator that sends the real key=value payload while declaring 8193 in\nthe BHS, on the first login PDU and on the second in separate runs.  The\nreported read size tracks the declared value exactly; 16384 and 61440\nbehave the same.  Unpatched 3 of 3 runs report on each of the two paths,\npatched 0 of 3 on both, run alternately in a single session, and a normal\nlogin still completes on the patched build.",
