Title
RDMA/umad: Reject negative data_len in ib_umad_write
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/umad: Reject negative data_len in ib_umad_write ib_umad_write computes data_len from user-controlled count and the MAD header sizes. With a mismatched user MAD header size and RMPP header length, data_len can become negative and reach ib_create_send_mad(). This can make the padding calculation exceed the segment size and trigger an out-of-bounds memset in alloc_send_rmpp_list(). Add an explicit check to reject negative data_len before creating the send buffer. KASAN splat: [ 211.363464] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ib_create_send_mad+0xa01/0x11b0 [ 211.364077] Write of size 220 at addr ffff88800c3fa1f8 by task spray_thread/102 [ 211.365867] ib_create_send_mad+0xa01/0x11b0 [ 211.365887] ib_umad_write+0x853/0x1c80

On RDMA-enabled systems (HPC clusters, cloud servers), udev rules commonly grant access to unprivileged users. An ioctl to register a MAD agent is needed first but requires no special privileges.\nUI:N - No user interaction is required. The attacker directly opens the device file, registers a MAD agent via ioctl, and triggers the bug by writing crafted data.\nS:U - The vulnerability operates within kernel space and does not cross a security boundary such as a VM or sandbox escape.\nC:H - The out-of-bounds memset write into slab memory can corrupt adjacent heap objects. In a controlled exploit, this memory corruption can be leveraged via heap spraying to gain arbitrary read primitives.\nI:H - KASAN confirmed a slab out-of-bounds write of 220 bytes. This heap corruption can be exploited to overwrite adjacent slab objects, enabling arbitrary write primitives and potential code execution.\nA:H - The out-of-bounds write corrupts slab memory, causing kernel crashes as confirmed by the KASAN splat.

On RDMA-enabled systems (HPC clusters, cloud servers), udev rules commonly grant access to unprivileged users. An ioctl to register a MAD agent is needed first but requires no special privileges.\nUI:N - No user interaction is required. The attacker directly opens the device file, registers a MAD agent via ioctl, and triggers the bug by writing crafted data.\nS:U - The vulnerability operates within kernel space and does not cross a security boundary such as a VM or sandbox escape.\nC:H - The out-of-bounds memset write into slab memory can corrupt adjacent heap objects. In a controlled exploit, this memory corruption can be leveraged via heap spraying to gain arbitrary read primitives.\nI:H - KASAN confirmed a slab out-of-bounds write of 220 bytes. This heap corruption can be exploited to overwrite adjacent slab objects, enabling arbitrary write primitives and potential code execution.\nA:H - The out-of-bounds write corrupts slab memory, causing kernel crashes as confirmed by the KASAN splat.
