brcmfmac: Fix out of bounds memory access during fw load
commit b72c51a upstream. I ended up tracking down some rather nasty issues with f2fs (and other filesystem modules) constantly crashing on my kernel down to a combination of out of bounds memory accesses, one of which was coming from brcmfmac during module load: [ 30.891382] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac4356-sdio for chip BCM4356/2 [ 30.894437] ================================================================== [ 30.901581] BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in brcmf_fw_alloc_request+0x42c/0x480 [brcmfmac] [ 30.909935] Read of size 1 at addr ffff2000024865df by task kworker/6:2/387 [ 30.916805] [ 30.918261] CPU: 6 PID: 387 Comm: kworker/6:2 Tainted: G O 4.20.0-rc3Lyude-Test+ #19 [ 30.927251] Hardware name: amlogic khadas-vim2/khadas-vim2, BIOS 2018.07-rc2-armbian 09/11/2018 [ 30.935964] Workqueue: events brcmf_driver_register [brcmfmac] [ 30.941641] Call trace: [ 30.944058] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x3e8 [ 30.947676] show_stack+0x14/0x20 [ 30.950968] dump_stack+0x130/0x1c4 [ 30.954406] print_address_description+0x60/0x25c [ 30.959066] kasan_report+0x1b4/0x368 [ 30.962683] __asan_report_load1_noabort+0x18/0x20 [ 30.967547] brcmf_fw_alloc_request+0x42c/0x480 [brcmfmac] [ 30.967639] brcmf_sdio_probe+0x163c/0x2050 [brcmfmac] [ 30.978035] brcmf_ops_sdio_probe+0x598/0xa08 [brcmfmac] [ 30.983254] sdio_bus_probe+0x190/0x398 [ 30.983270] really_probe+0x2a0/0xa70 [ 30.983296] driver_probe_device+0x1b4/0x2d8 [ 30.994901] __driver_attach+0x200/0x280 [ 30.994914] bus_for_each_dev+0x10c/0x1a8 [ 30.994925] driver_attach+0x38/0x50 [ 30.994935] bus_add_driver+0x330/0x608 [ 30.994953] driver_register+0x140/0x388 [ 31.013965] sdio_register_driver+0x74/0xa0 [ 31.014076] brcmf_sdio_register+0x14/0x60 [brcmfmac] [ 31.023177] brcmf_driver_register+0xc/0x18 [brcmfmac] [ 31.023209] process_one_work+0x654/0x1080 [ 31.032266] worker_thread+0x4f0/0x1308 [ 31.032286] kthread+0x2a8/0x320 [ 31.039254] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x1c [ 31.039269] [ 31.044226] The buggy address belongs to the variable: [ 31.044351] brcmf_firmware_path+0x11f/0xfffffffffffd3b40 [brcmfmac] [ 31.055601] [ 31.057031] Memory state around the buggy address: [ 31.061800] ffff200002486480: 04 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 31.068983] ffff200002486500: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 31.068993] >ffff200002486580: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 [ 31.068999] ^ [ 31.069017] ffff200002486600: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 31.096521] ffff200002486680: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa [ 31.096528] ================================================================== [ 31.096533] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint It appears that when trying to determine the length of the string in the alternate firmware path, we make the mistake of not handling the case where the firmware path is empty correctly. Since strlen(mp_path) can return 0, we'll end up accessing mp_path[-1] when the firmware_path isn't provided through the module arguments. So, fix this by just setting the end char to '\0' by default, and only changing it if we have a non-zero length. Additionally, use strnlen() with BRCMF_FW_ALTPATH_LEN instead of strlen() just to be extra safe.
