  • There is a missing address check in both show_opcodes() callers.
    show_opcodes() is mostly used by the kernel to print the raw
    instruction bytes surrounding an instruction that generated an
    unexpected exception; however, sometimes it is also used to
    print userspace instructions.
    Because the userspace address isn't checked against TASK_SIZE_MAX, if userspace
    faults on a kernel address, the kernel can dump data from a user-controlled
    address into dmesg.
    
    show_opcodes() has two callers:
     - since commit ba54d856a9d8 (first in 4.18): show_signal_msg() shows userspace
     instructions when userspace e.g. segfaults
     - show_ip() is used when the kernel detects some sort of bug; this means that
     to trigger it, you need some way to at least trigger a WARN() or so
    
    Repro for the first variant:
    
    =========================
    user@debian:~/segfault$ sudo grep core_pattern /proc/kallsyms
    ffffffff9ae34180 D core_pattern
    ffffffff9be99500 t _GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_1_core_pattern
    ffffffff9bff2860 t _GLOBAL__sub_D_65535_0_core_pattern
    user@debian:~/segfault$ cat segfault.c
    int main(void) {
    	void (*fn)(void) = (void*)0xffffffff9ae34180;
    	fn();
    }
    user@debian:~/segfault$ gcc -o segfault segfault.c
    user@debian:~/segfault$ ./segfault 
    Segmentation fault
    user@debian:~/segfault$ sudo dmesg | tail -n2

    =========================
    
    Note the "<63> 6f 72 65 00" - that's "core\0".
    
    Repro for the second variant:
    
    Patch the kernel like this to get an easy way to trigger a WARN() in the right
    context:
    =========================
    diff --git a/arch/x86/mm/fault.c b/arch/x86/mm/fault.c
    index b9123c497e0a..fab40edd4c9e 100644
    --- a/arch/x86/mm/fault.c
    +++ b/arch/x86/mm/fault.c
    @@ -891,6 +891,7 @@ __bad_area_nosemaphore(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code,
    tsk->thread.trap_nr = X86_TRAP_PF;
     
    force_sig_info_fault(SIGSEGV, si_code, address, tsk, pkey, 0);
    +WARN(1, "TESTING WARN()");
     
    return;
    }
    =========================
    
    Then run the same repro code as before (with the core_pattern address fixed up).
    Result:
