In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libbpf: Use OPTS_SET() macro in bpf_xdp_query()
When the feature_flags and xdp_zc_max_segs fields were added to the libbpf
bpf_xdp_query_opts, the code writing them did not use the OPTS_SET() macro.
This causes libbpf to write to those fields unconditionally, which means
that programs compiled against an older version of libbpf (with a smaller
size of the bpf_xdp_query_opts struct) will have its stack corrupted by
libbpf writing out of bounds.
The patch adding the feature_flags field has an early bail out if the
feature_flags field is not part of the opts struct (via the OPTS_HAS)
macro, but the patch adding xdp_zc_max_segs does not. For consistency, this
fix just changes the assignments to both fields to use the OPTS_SET()
macro.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel’s bpf_xdp_query() function, where an out-of-bounds write error can occur due to a misalignment between the older and newer versions of the bpf_xdp_query_opts structure. This issue occurs when an older version of libbpf interacts with a newer version, leading to stack corruption because the latest version of the structure introduced new fields, feature_flags, and xdp_zc_max_segs. As such, the older version, which has smaller struct sizes, may have its stack corrupted by the newer version writing beyond the allocated space. This vulnerability can lead to memory corruption or system instability.
