Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RISC-V: KVM: Don't zero-out PMU snapshot area before freeing data With the latest Linux-6.11-rc3, the below NULL pointer crash is observed when SBI PMU snapshot is enabled for the guest and the guest is forcefully powered-off. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000508 Oops [#1] Modules linked in: kvm CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 61 Comm: term-poll Not tainted 6.11.0-rc3-00018-g44d7178dd77a #3 Hardware name: riscv-virtio,qemu (DT) epc : __kvm_write_guest_page+0x94/0xa6 [kvm] ra : __kvm_write_guest_page+0x54/0xa6 [kvm] epc : ffffffff01590e98 ra : ffffffff01590e58 sp : ffff8f80001f39b0 gp : ffffffff81512a60 tp : ffffaf80024872c0 t0 : ffffaf800247e000 t1 : 00000000000007e0 t2 : 0000000000000000 s0 : ffff8f80001f39f0 s1 : 00007fff89ac4000 a0 : ffffffff015dd7e8 a1 : 0000000000000086 a2 : 0000000000000000 a3 : ffffaf8000000000 a4 : ffffaf80024882c0 a5 : 0000000000000000 a6 : ffffaf800328d780 a7 : 00000000000001cc s2 : ffffaf800197bd00 s3 : 00000000000828c4 s4 : ffffaf800248c000 s5 : ffffaf800247d000 s6 : 0000000000001000 s7 : 0000000000001000 s8 : 0000000000000000 s9 : 00007fff861fd500 s10: 0000000000000001 s11: 0000000000800000 t3 : 00000000000004d3 t4 : 00000000000004d3 t5 : ffffffff814126e0 t6 : ffffffff81412700 status: 0000000200000120 badaddr: 0000000000000508 cause: 000000000000000d [<ffffffff01590e98>] __kvm_write_guest_page+0x94/0xa6 [kvm] [<ffffffff015943a6>] kvm_vcpu_write_guest+0x56/0x90 [kvm] [<ffffffff015a175c>] kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area+0x42/0x7e [kvm] [<ffffffff015a1972>] kvm_riscv_vcpu_pmu_deinit.part.0+0xe0/0x14e [kvm] [<ffffffff015a2ad0>] kvm_riscv_vcpu_pmu_deinit+0x1a/0x24 [kvm] [<ffffffff0159b344>] kvm_arch_vcpu_destroy+0x28/0x4c [kvm] [<ffffffff0158e420>] kvm_destroy_vcpus+0x5a/0xda [kvm] [<ffffffff0159930c>] kvm_arch_destroy_vm+0x14/0x28 [kvm] [<ffffffff01593260>] kvm_destroy_vm+0x168/0x2a0 [kvm] [<ffffffff015933d4>] kvm_put_kvm+0x3c/0x58 [kvm] [<ffffffff01593412>] kvm_vm_release+0x22/0x2e [kvm] Clearly, the kvm_vcpu_write_guest() function is crashing because it is being called from kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() upon guest tear down. To address the above issue, simplify the kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() to not zero-out PMU snapshot area from kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() because the guest is anyway being tore down. The kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() is also called when guest changes PMU snapshot area of a VCPU but even in this case the previous PMU snaphsot area must not be zeroed-out because the guest might have reclaimed the pervious PMU snapshot area for some other purpose.

Para solucionar el problema anterior, simplifique kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() para que no ponga a cero el área de instantáneas de PMU de kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() porque, de todos modos, el invitado se está desmantelando. También se llama a kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() cuando el invitado cambia el área de instantáneas de PMU de una VCPU, pero incluso en este caso, el área de instantáneas de PMU anterior no debe ponerse a cero porque el invitado podría haber recuperado el área de instantáneas de PMU anterior para algún otro propósito.\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H\",\"baseScore\":5.5,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"LOCAL\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"LOW\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":1.8,\"impactScore\":3.6}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-476\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"6.10\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"6.10.13\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"767D4D2D-C6E7-4B7D-9446-CFC8F8FF2FBB\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"6.11\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"6.11.2\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"AB755D26-97F4-43B6-8604-CD076811E181\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/47d40d93292d9cff8dabb735bed83d930fa03950\",\"source\":\"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6d0a5dcfc78bd18f2abb9641f83380135494559b\",\"source\":\"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]},{\"url\":\"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/81aa95fd5bd14ff49617f07fa79a8d1f1cf2ce9a\",\"source\":\"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\"]}]}}",
