In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/ras: Fix cxl_rch_get_aer_info() out-of-bounds AER register read
cxl_rch_get_aer_info() copies the RCH Downstream Port AER capability from
the RCRB MMIO block using a readl() loop bounded by sizeof(struct
aer_capability_regs). This struct is a software layout and its embedded
struct pcie_tlp_log is larger than the on-wire AER capability. As a
result the loop reads past the mapped AER register block.
The over-read also populates the software-only tail fields including
header_log.header_len. An out-of-range header_len passed to
pcie_print_tlp_log() can then loop past the header log buffer and cause
a second out-of-bounds read.
The read was correct when introduced, but struct pcie_tlp_log has since
grown (Header Log and TLP Prefix Log sizes, header_len and flit fields),
so sizeof(struct aer_capability_regs) no longer matches the physical AER
capability.
Bound the read to the physical AER registers, header through the 16 byte
Header Log. Zero the destination first so the software-only fields are
deterministic.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A vulnerability exists in the cxl_rch_get_aer_info() function, which is responsible for handling CXL/RAS (Compute Express Link/Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability) AER (Advanced Error Reporting) capabilities. Due to a mismatch between a software structure and the physical hardware register size, the function reads beyond its intended memory boundary. This out-of-bounds read could potentially lead to system instability or unintended information disclosure.
