Tetsuo Handa 028b478f22 fbdev: Detect integer underflow at "struct fbcon_ops"->clear_margins.
commit 033724d6864245a11f8e04c066002e6ad22b3fd0 upstream.

syzbot is reporting general protection fault in bitfill_aligned() [1]
caused by integer underflow in bit_clear_margins(). The cause of this
problem is when and how do_vc_resize() updates vc->vc_{cols,rows}.

If vc_do_resize() fails (e.g. kzalloc() fails) when var.xres or var.yres
is going to shrink, vc->vc_{cols,rows} will not be updated. This allows
bit_clear_margins() to see info->var.xres < (vc->vc_cols * cw) or
info->var.yres < (vc->vc_rows * ch). Unexpectedly large rw or bh will
try to overrun the __iomem region and causes general protection fault.

Also, vc_resize(vc, 0, 0) does not set vc->vc_{cols,rows} = 0 due to

  new_cols = (cols ? cols : vc->vc_cols);
  new_rows = (lines ? lines : vc->vc_rows);

exception. Since cols and lines are calculated as

  cols = FBCON_SWAP(ops->rotate, info->var.xres, info->var.yres);
  rows = FBCON_SWAP(ops->rotate, info->var.yres, info->var.xres);
  cols /= vc->vc_font.width;
  rows /= vc->vc_font.height;
  vc_resize(vc, cols, rows);

in fbcon_modechanged(), var.xres < vc->vc_font.width makes cols = 0
and var.yres < vc->vc_font.height makes rows = 0. This means that

  const int fd = open("/dev/fb0", O_ACCMODE);
  struct fb_var_screeninfo var = { };
  ioctl(fd, FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO, &var);
  var.xres = var.yres = 1;
  ioctl(fd, FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO, &var);

easily reproduces integer underflow bug explained above.

Of course, callers of vc_resize() are not handling vc_do_resize() failure
is bad. But we can't avoid vc_resize(vc, 0, 0) which returns 0. Therefore,
as a band-aid workaround, this patch checks integer underflow in
"struct fbcon_ops"->clear_margins call, assuming that
vc->vc_cols * vc->vc_font.width and vc->vc_rows * vc->vc_font.heigh do not
cause integer overflow.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
