Basically, it is to overwrite the memory area of vulnerable object by triggering allocation in other subsystems or modules and therefore getting a reference to the targeted memory location. It's usable on various types of vulnerablity including use after free (UAF), heap out- of-bound write and etc. There are (at least) two reasons why the heap can be sprayed: 1) generic slab caches are shared among different subsystems and modules, and 2) dedicated slab caches could be merged with the generic ones. Currently these two factors cannot be prevented at a low cost: the first one is a widely used memory allocation mechanism, and shutting down slab merging completely via `slub_nomerge` would be overkill. To efficiently prevent heap spraying, we propose the following approach: to create multiple copies of generic slab caches that will never be merged, and random one of them will be used at allocation. The random selection is based on the location of code that calls `kmalloc()`, which means it is static at runtime (rather than dynamically determined at each time of allocation, which could be bypassed by repeatedly spraying in brute force). In this way, the vulnerable object and memory allocated in other subsystems and modules will (most probably) be on different slab caches, which prevents the object from being sprayed. Signed-off-by: GONG, Ruiqi --- v0: The current implementation only randomize slab caches for KMALLOC_NORMAL allocation. Besides the patch itself, we would also like to know the opinion of the community about whether or not it's necessary to extend this randomization to all KMALLOC_*, and if so, if implementing a three- dimensional `kmalloc_caches` is a better choice. include/linux/percpu.h | 12 +++++++++--- include/linux/slab.h | 24 +++++++++++++++++++----- mm/Kconfig | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ mm/kfence/kfence_test.c | 4 ++-- mm/slab.c | 2 +- mm/slab.h | 3 ++- mm/slab_common.c | 40 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 7 files changed, 88 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/percpu.h b/include/linux/percpu.h index 1338ea2aa720..6cee6425951f 100644 --- a/include/linux/percpu.h +++ b/include/linux/percpu.h @@ -34,6 +34,12 @@ #define PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_BITS (PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE >> \ PCPU_MIN_ALLOC_SHIFT) +#ifdef CONFIG_RANDOM_KMALLOC_CACHES +#define PERCPU_DYNAMIC_SIZE_SHIFT 13 +#else +#define PERCPU_DYNAMIC_SIZE_SHIFT 10 +#endif + /* * Percpu allocator can serve percpu allocations before slab is * initialized which allows slab to depend on the percpu allocator. @@ -41,7 +47,7 @@ * for this.
