A simplified reproducer and debug printk() patch shown below reported that
vc_font.height is increased to 9 via ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) after it was once
decreased from 16 to 2 via ioctl(PIO_FONT).
Since vc_resize() with v.v_rows == 0 preserves current vc->vc_rows value,
this reproducer is bypassing
if (v.v_clin) {
int rows = v.v_vlin / v.v_clin;
if (v.v_rows != rows) {
if (v.v_rows) /* Parameters don't add up */
return -EINVAL;
v.v_rows = rows;
}
}
check by setting v.v_vlin == 1 and v.v_clin == 9.
If v.v_vcol > 0 and v.v_vcol != vc->vc_cols (though this reproducer is passing
v.v_vcol == 0), tty_do_resize() from vc_do_resize() from vc_resize() can make
"struct tty_struct"->winsize.ws_ypixel = 1 despite
"struct tty_struct"->winsize.vc->vc_rows = vc->vc_rows (which is usually larger
than 1). Does such winsize (a row has 1 / vc->vc_rows pixel) make sense?
Since I don't know the meaning of "struct vt_consize"->v_clin (which is commented
with "/* number of pixel rows per character */" but does it mean font size ?),
I don't know why we can assign that value to vcp->vc_font.height via
if (v.v_clin)
vcp->vc_font.height = v.v_clin;
in vt_resizex(). While ioctl(PIO_FONT) needs to pass vc->vc_sw->con_font_set()
check in con_font_set(), ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) does not pass it in vt_resizex()...
Since this problem does not happen if I remove
if (v.v_clin)
vcp->vc_font.height = v.v_clin;
from vt_resizex(), I guess that some variables are getting confused by change
of vc->vc_font.height ...
#define VT_RESIZE 0x5609 /* set kernel's idea of screensize */
#define VT_RESIZEX 0x560A /* set kernel's idea of screensize + more */
Hmm, what comes to the "+ more" part? Who is using VT_RESIZEX ?
If nobody is using VT_RESIZEX, better to make VT_RESIZEX == VT_RESIZE ?

Hi Tetsuo!

Yes, see bit_putcs():
(drivers/video/fbdev/core/bitblit.c)
static void bit_putcs(struct vc_data *vc, struct fb_info *info,
const unsigned short *s, int count, int yy, int xx,
int fg, int bg)
{
struct fb_image image;
u32 width = DIV_ROUND_UP(vc->vc_font.width, 8);
u32 cellsize = width * vc->vc_font.height;
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
`cellsize` is now too large. Later, in bit_putcs_aligned():
while (cnt--) {
src = vc->vc_font.data + (scr_readw(s++)&
charmask)*cellsize;
^^^^^^^^
`src` goes out of bounds of the data buffer. At first glance I guess
this is an out-of-bound read reported as a use-after-free read? The
crashlog says:
[ 149.732103][ T6693] Allocated by task 6667:

[ 149.732145][ T6693] do_pipe2 (fs/pipe.c:965 fs/pipe.c:1012)
I'm not sure, but I don't think a buffer allocated in fs/pipe.c is
related here. Maybe they just live near each other on the heap?
To resolve this out-of-bound issue for now, I think the easiest way
is to add a range check in bit_putcs(), or bit_putcs_aligned().
...but yeah, that `VT_RESIZEX` ioctl looks really buggy, and is already
causing more issues:
KASAN: global-out-of-bounds Read in fbcon_get_font
Link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=08b8be45afea11888776f897895aef9ad1c3ecfd
This was also caused by `VT_RESIZEX`...
Thank you,

At least, since not all fonts have height == 32 (e.g. font_vga_8x8 is height == 8),
allow changing vc->vc_font.height with only
if (v.v_clin > 32)
return -EINVAL;
validation in VT_RESIZEX looks wrong. This needs more validations.
By the way, can we find a user of VT_RESIZEX? As far as I googled with "VT_RESIZEX",
I couldn't find a userspace program; only explanation of VT_RESIZEX and kernel patches
related to VT_RESIZEX are found. Also, while console_ioctl(4) man page says
Any parameter may be set to zero, indicating "no change"
, the assignment
if (!v.v_vlin)
v.v_vlin = vc->vc_scan_lines;
changes the meaning to
If v_vlin parameter is set to zero, the value for associated console is copied
to each console (instead of preserving current value for that console)
. Maybe for now we can try this (effectively making VT_RESIZEX == VT_RESIZE) ?

Well, vt_io_ioctl(PIO_FONT) initializes "struct console_font_op op;" with
op.width = 8;
op.height = 0;
op.charcount = 256;
and calls con_font_set() from con_font_op(). But the "/* Need to guess font height [compat] */"
chunk in con_font_set() guesses font's height due to being initialized with op.height = 0.
Then, con_font_set() calls fbcon_set_font() via vc->vc_sw->con_font_set(), and fbcon_set_font()
allocates minimal amount of memory for font data based on font's height calcllated by con_font_set().
Therefore, any attempt to change font's height (like vt_resizex()) larger than font's height
calculated by con_font_set() can cause OOB read of memory block for font data. If we allocate
maximal amount of memory for any font, OOB read of memory block for font data should not happen.

Very interesting, I remember seeing this on the syzbot dashboard...
Yes, I guess it is this one:
KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in soft_cursor
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=6b8355d27b2b94fb5cedf4655e3a59162d9e48e3
There is a `0x560aul` ioctl() in the reproducer, which is `VT_RESIZEX`.
Thank you,
Peilin Ye
syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2], for
vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height larger than
actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from ioctl(PIO_FONT).
Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates minimal amount of
memory based on actual font height calculated by con_font_set(),
use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font data.
VT_RESIZEX was introduced in Linux 1.3.3, but it is unclear that what
comes to the "+ more" part, and I couldn't find a user of VT_RESIZEX.
#define VT_RESIZE 0x5609 /* set kernel's idea of screensize */
#define VT_RESIZEX 0x560A /* set kernel's idea of screensize + more */
So far we are not aware of syzbot reports caused by setting non-zero value
to v_vlin parameter. But given that it is possible that nobody is using
VT_RESIZEX, we can try removing support for v_clin and v_vlin parameters.
Therefore, this patch effectively makes VT_RESIZEX behave like VT_RESIZE,
with emitting a message if somebody is still using v_clin and/or v_vlin
parameters.

Debian code search doesn't show any users, and that's usually a good
indication of what userspace ioctls for old things like this, are being
used for.
So this makes sense to me, I'll queue it up, thanks!

It seems this is/was used by "svgatextmode" which seems to be at
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/console/
Not sure if that kind of software still has a chance to work nowadays.

Thanks for the information.
It seems that v.v_vlin = curr_textmode->VDisplay / (MOFLG_ISSET(curr_textmode, ATTR_DOUBLESCAN) ? 2 : 1)
and v.v_clin = curr_textmode->FontHeight . Thus, v.v_clin is font's height and seems to be non-zero.
But according to https://bugs.gentoo.org/19485 , people are using kernel framebuffer instead.

Yes, this seems to be from pre framebuffer times.
Back in the days "svga" was the wording you got for "pokes svga card
hardware registers from userspace drivers". And textmode means font
rendering is done via (fixed function in those times) hardware scanout
engine. Of course having only to update 2 bytes per character was a huge
saving early on. Likely this is also before vesa VBE was reliable.
So i guess the point where this all starts going wrong allowing the X parts
of the api to be combined with FB based rendering at all? Sounds the only
user didn't use that combination and so it was never tested?
Then again, this all relates to hardware from 20 years ago...

Imo userspace modesetting should be burned down anywhere we can. We've
gotten away with this in drivers/gpu by just seamlessly transitioning to
kernel drivers.
Since th only userspace we've found seems to be able to cope if this ioctl
doesn't do anything, my vote goes towards ripping it out completely and
doing nothing in there. Only question is whether we should error or fail
with a silent success: Former is safer, latter can avoid a few regression
reports since the userspace tools keep "working", and usually people don't
notice for stuff this old. It worked in drivers/gpu :-)

This patch just ignores the ioctl and keeps on going, so userspace
"shouldn't" notice it :)
And it's in linux-next now, so all should be good.

vt_ioctl: make VT_RESIZEX behave like VT_RESIZE
commit 988d0763361bb65690d60e2bc53a6b72777040c3 upstream.
syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2], for
vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height larger than
actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from ioctl(PIO_FONT).
Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates minimal amount of
memory based on actual font height calculated by con_font_set(),
use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font data.
VT_RESIZEX was introduced in Linux 1.3.3, but it is unclear that what
comes to the "+ more" part, and I couldn't find a user of VT_RESIZEX.
#define VT_RESIZE 0x5609 /* set kernel's idea of screensize */
#define VT_RESIZEX 0x560A /* set kernel's idea of screensize + more */
So far we are not aware of syzbot reports caused by setting non-zero value
to v_vlin parameter. But given that it is possible that nobody is using
VT_RESIZEX, we can try removing support for v_clin and v_vlin parameters.
Therefore, this patch effectively makes VT_RESIZEX behave like VT_RESIZE,
with emitting a message if somebody is still using v_clin and/or v_vlin
parameters.

So it does trigger with vgacon and my old server, which I have started
experimenting with and for a start I have switched to a new kernel for an
unrelated purpose (now that I have relieved it from all its usual tasks
except for the last remaining one for which I haven't got the required
user software ported to the new system yet):
"struct vt_consize"->v_vlin is ignored. Please report if you need this.
"struct vt_consize"->v_clin is ignored. Please report if you need this.
It continues using svgatextmode with its glass (CRT) VT to set my usual
80x37 text mode (720x576 pixel resolution) by manipulating the VGA clock
chip and the CRT controller appropriately for a nice refresh rate of 85Hz:
Chipset = `TVGA8900', Textmode clock = 44.90 MHz, 80x37 chars, CharCell = 9x16. Refresh = 52.51kHz/84.7Hz.
Indeed the piece of software became less usable around Y2K as clock chip
support stopped being added to svgatextmode for new video adapters, but
with the advent of LCD technology and its disregard for the refresh rate
previously driven by the pixel clock the program got its second life and I
have used it ever since with its plain VGA driver by just manipulating the
CRTC for the resolution required:
Chipset = `VGA', Textmode clock = 28.32 MHz, 80x37 chars, CharCell = 9x16. Refresh = 31.47kHz/49.0Hz.
(that would still work with a standard 800x600 SVGA CRT, but the refresh
rate would make anyone's eyes cry soon; with LCD it's just awesome, and
the VGA emulation of the actual graphics adapter turns it at the video
output into a 1600x1200 picture at the horizontal and vertical rates of
75KHz and 60Hz respectively, making the text produced on LCD outstanding
while showing about the right amount of it).
But I'm currently ~160km/100mi away from the server I have triggered this
message with, so I cannot easily check what's going on with its VT. And I
can't fiddle with my production laptop (ThinkPad P51) I have with me that
I also use svgatextmode with so much as to reboot it with a new kernel
(plain Debian 4.19.16-1~bpo9+1 still here).
So what's the supposed impact of this change that prompted the inclusion
of the messages? I can port svgatextmode (it's my own compilation anyway)
if that is required for it to continue working correctly, but I need to
understand the circumstances here. I have failed to find a satisfactory
alternative solution to vgacon and svgatextmode; the main showstopper is
the IBM's hardware trick for a 9x16 character cell that I rely on.

Note that it's entirely possible that things continue to work well
despite this warning. It's unclear to me from your email if you
actually see any difference (and apparently you're not able to see it
right now due to not being close to the machine).
The fact that v_vlin/v_clin are ignored doesn't necessarily mean that
they are different from what they were before, so the warning may be a
non-issue.

That doesn't seem necessarily wrong to me.

There _may_ be no impact at all apart from the messages.
The code _used_ to set the scan lines (v_vlin) and font height
(v_clin) from those numbers if they were non-zero, and now it just
ignores them and warns instead.
The code now just sets the font height from the actual font size when
the font is set. Which is honestly the only thing that ever made
sense. Trying to set it with v_clin is ignored, but it's entirely
possible - maybe even likely - that your user of VT_RESIZEX sets it to
the same values it already has.
Exactly because setting a font line number to anything else than the
font size isn't exactly sensible.
But if your screen looks different than it used to, that is obviously
interesting and says something actually changed (outside of the
message itself).

Original search didn't turn up any users of VT_RESIZEX, this is the
first. And looking at the source code I think we could outright remove
support for VT_RESIZEX (but make it silent) and everything should keep
working:
/*
* ALWAYS do a VT_RESIZE, even if we already did a VT_RESIZEX
on a 1.3.3 or higher kernel,
* until those kernel programmers make this unambiguous
*/
if (do_VT_RESIZE(curr_textmode->cols, curr_textmode->rows,
resize1x1)) sresize=TRUE;
if (check_kernel_version(1,3,3, "VT_RESIZEX"))
{
/*
* VDisplay must de divided by 2 for DoubleScan modes,
* or VT_RESIZEX will fail -- until someone fixes the kernel
* so it understands about doublescan modes.
*/
if (do_VT_RESIZEX(curr_textmode->cols,
curr_textmode->rows,
curr_textmode->VDisplay /
(MOFLG_ISSET(curr_textmode, ATTR_DOUBLESCAN) ? 2 : 1),
curr_textmode->FontHeight,
curr_textmode->HDisplay/8*curr_textmode->FontWidth,
curr_textmode->FontWidth, resize1x1)) sresize=TRUE;
}
The functions are just straightforward wrappers. There's also no cvs
repo, changelog or old releases before 2000 that would shed some light
on why this code even exists.
I think we can just tune down the pr_info_once to pr_debug and done.
Maybe a comment about where the single user we're aware of is.

I did some archaeology then, using a local copy of the linux-mips.org
Linux tree that has historic information imported from the old oss.sgi.com
MIPS/Linux CVS repo. According to that the ioctl was added with or
shortly before 2.1.14:
commit beb116954b9b7f3bb56412b2494b562f02b864b1

Import of Linux/MIPS 2.1.14
and, importantly, it was used to set some parameters:
if ( vlin )
video_scan_lines = vlin;
if ( clin )
video_font_height = clin;
used by `con_adjust_height' in drivers/char/vga.c: `video_scan_lines' to
set the vertical display limit (so that it is a whole multiple of the new
font height) and `video_font_height' to set the cursor scan lines in the
CRTC. The function was used by the PIO_FONTX and PIO_FONTRESET VT ioctls
at that point.
That code was moved to `vgacon_adjust_height' in drivers/video/vgacon.c
and then drivers/video/console/vgacon.c. The code is still there, serving
the KDFONTOP ioctl.
With:
commit 9736a3546de7b6a2b16ad93539e4b3ac72b385bb
Author: Ralf Baechle <[email protected]>

Merge with Linux 2.5.66.
the parameters were moved into `struct vc_data':
if (vlin)
- video_scan_lines = vlin;
+ vc->vc_scan_lines = vlin;
if (clin)
- video_font_height = clin;
+ vc->vc_font.height = clin;
and this piece of code to set them only removed with the change discussed
here.
So without even looking at the VT, which I'll surely get to eventually, I
conclude this change regresses font resizing (KD_FONT_OP_SET) once a new
resolution has been set with svgatextmode. I think this change needs to
be reverted, especially as the problematic PIO_FONT ioctl referred has
been since removed with commit ff2047fb755d ("vt: drop old FONT ioctls").
