In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: xdr_buf_trim: clamp buf->len to avoid underflow
xdr_buf_trim() trims len bytes from the tail of an xdr_buf by
walking the tail, pages, and head iovecs. Each per-section step
uses min_t() so it never removes more bytes than that section
holds, but the final accounting at the fix_len label subtracts the
total bytes actually consumed from buf->len without any clamp:
fix_len:
buf->len -= (len - trim);
When the caller has set buf->len to a value smaller than the sum
of the iov_lens, (len - trim) can exceed buf->len and the unsigned
subtraction wraps to near UINT_MAX. gss_krb5_unwrap_v2() reaches
xdr_buf_trim() in exactly that state:
buf->head[0].iov_len -= GSS_KRB5_TOK_HDR_LEN + headskip;
buf->len = len - (GSS_KRB5_TOK_HDR_LEN + headskip);
xdr_buf_trim(buf, ec + GSS_KRB5_TOK_HDR_LEN + tailskip);
buf->len is a small wire-derived value while the iov_lens are at
page scale, so the per-section loops legitimately consume far more
bytes than buf->len records. The wrapped buf->len then propagates
as the authoritative stream bound into every downstream XDR
decoder.
Fix by clamping the decrement so buf->len bottoms out at zero:
buf->len -= min_t(unsigned int, buf->len, len - trim);
On the normal path where the iov_lens sum to buf->len, (len - trim)
is always <= buf->len and the result is identical to before. No
callers change behavior outside the underflow case.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SUNRPC subsystem, specifically within the xdr_buf_trim() function. This vulnerability occurs when xdr_buf_trim() attempts to reduce the size of an XDR buffer. If the buffer's length is smaller than the amount being trimmed, an integer underflow can occur, causing the buffer's length to wrap to a very large value. This corrupted length then propagates to other XDR decoders, potentially leading to data misinterpretation and unexpected system behavior.
