Subject: [PATCH bpf v4] bpf: verifier: prevent userspace memory access

With BPF_PROBE_MEM, BPF allows de-referencing an untrusted pointer. To
thwart invalid memory accesses, the JITs add an exception table entry
for all such accesses. But in case the src_reg + offset overflows and
turns into a userspace address, the BPF program might read that memory if
the user has mapped it.

There are architectural features that prevent the kernel from accessing
userspace memory, like Privileged Access Never (PAN) on ARM64,
Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) on x86-64, Supervisor User
Memory access (SUM) on RISC-V, etc. But BPF should not rely on the
existence of these features.

Make the verifier add guard instructions around such memory accesses and
skip the load if the address falls into the userspace region.

The JITs need to implement bpf_arch_uaddress_limit() to define where
the userspace addresses end for that architecture or TASK_SIZE is taken
as default.

The implementation is as follows:

REG_AX = SRC_REG
if(offset)
REG_AX += offset;
REG_AX >>= 32;
if (REG_AX <= (uaddress_limit >> 32))
DST_REG = 0;
else
DST_REG = *(size *)(SRC_REG + offset);

Comparing just the upper 32 bits of the load address with the upper
32 bits of uaddress_limit implies that the values are being aligned down
to a 4GB boundary before comparison.

The above means that all loads with address <= uaddress_limit + 4GB are
skipped. This is acceptable because there is a large hole (much larger
than 4GB) between userspace and kernel space memory, therefore a
correctly functioning BPF program should not access this 4GB memory
above the userspace.

Let's analyze what this patch does to the following fentry program
dereferencing an untrusted pointer:

SEC("fentry/tcp_v4_connect")
int BPF_PROG(fentry_tcp_v4_connect, struct sock *sk)
{
*(volatile long *)sk;
return 0;
}

BPF Program before | BPF Program after
------------------ | -----------------

0: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0) 0: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0) --\ 1: (bf) r11 = r1
----------------------------\ \ 2: (77) r11 >>= 32
2: (b7) r0 = 0 \ \ 3: (b5) if r11 <= 0x8000 goto pc+2
3: (95) exit \ \-> 4: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0)
\ 5: (05) goto pc+1
\ 6: (b7) r1 = 0
\--------------------------------------
7: (b7) r0 = 0
8: (95) exit

As you can see from above, in the best case (off=0), 5 extra instructions
are emitted.

Now, we analyse the same program after it has gone through the JITs of
X86-64, ARM64, and RISC-V architectures. We follow the single load
instruction that has the untrusted pointer and see what instrumentation
has been added around it.

The x86-64 JIT already emits some instructions to protect against user
memory access. The implementation in this patch leads to a smaller
number of instructions being emitted. In the worst case the JIT will
emit 9 extra instructions and this patch decreases it to 7.

become 7 in the worst case (off != 0).

V3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
Changes in V4:
- Disable this feature on architectures that don't define
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE.
- By doing the above, we don't need anything explicitly for s390x.

V2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
Changes in V3:
- Return 0 from bpf_arch_uaddress_limit() in disabled case because it
returns u64.
- Modify the check in verifier to no do instrumentation when uaddress_limit
is 0.

V1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/
Changes in V2:
- Disable this feature on s390x.

But how does this address other cases where we could fault e.g. non-canonical,
vsyscall page, etc? Technically, we would have to call to copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed()
to really address all the cases aside from the overflow (good catch btw!) where kernel
turns into user address.

Thanks,

So, we are trying to ~simulate a call to
copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed() here. If the address under
consideration is below TASK_SIZE (TASK_SIZE + 4GB to be precise) then we
skip that load because that address could be mapped by the user.

If the address is above TASK_SIZE + 4GB, we allow the load and it could
cause a fault if the address is invalid, non-canonical etc. Taking the
fault is fine because JIT will add an exception table entry for
for that load with BPF_PBOBE_MEM.

The vsyscall page is special, this approach skips all loads from this
page. I am not sure if that is acceptable.

Are you sure? I don't think the kernel handles non-canonical fixup.

The bpf_probe_read_kernel() does handle it fine via copy_from_kernel_nofault().

So there is tail risk that BPF_PROBE_* could trigger a crash. Other archs might
have other quirks, e.g. in case of loongarch it says highest bit set means kernel
space.

Atleast for ARM64 for I don't see a differentiation between the handling
of canonical and non-canonical addresses.
do_translation_fault() checks if addr < TASK_SIZE and calls
do_page_fault() or if the address is greater than TASK_SIZE (it is a
kernel address), do_bad_area() is called.

Both of these call __do_kernel_fault() if fault is from kernel mode and it
does fixup_exception().

bpf_probe_read_kernel() is skipping reading from the vsyscall page, that
is what this patch does as well.

ARM64, RISCV, and some other archs don't implement
copy_from_kernel_nofault_allowed() so I think the we should fix the
common case where the BPF program should not be allowed to access memory
below TASK_SIZE. This would be true for all architectures.

Can you explain this a bit more, how will BPF_PROBE_* trigger a crash?

I believe it handles it fine otherwise our selftest bpf_testmod_return_ptr:
case 4: return (void *)(1ull << 60); /* non-canonical and invalid */
would have been crashing for the last 3 years,
since we've been running it.

For this patch let's do
return max(TASK_SIZE_MAX + PAGE_SIZE, VSYSCALL_ADDR)
to cover both with one check?

let's tackle loongarch with whatever quirks it has separately.

I agree, will add this in the next version.

Yes, having the current patch will not break loongarch, it will help it
skip some userspace addresses. We can later implement
bpf_arch_uaddress_limit() in loongarch JIT to handle its specific
quirks.

Sorry. I didn't look at actual value when I suggested this.
Let's think how to check for them with one conditional branch.
Maybe we can REG_AX >>= 24 instead of 32
and do some clever math, since we need to:
addr < 0x7ffffful || addr == 0xfffffffffful
?
If we have to do two branches that's fine for now,
but we probably need to leave it to JITs,
since they can emit two faster conditional moves and use
single conditional jump or
introduce new pseudo bpf insns equivalent to x86 set[ae|ne|..]
