Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, riscv: Fix extable handling for arena load_acquire
emit_atomic_ld_st() returns 1 to have build_body() skip the zext after
a sub-word load_acquire. The caller does "ret = ret ?:
add_exception_handler(...)", which skips add_exception_handler() on any
non-zero ret, so the extable entry is missing and a faulting
PROBE_ATOMIC load_acquire oopses.
REG_DONT_CLEAR_MARKER leaves rd stale on fault, and the verifier still
thinks the load overwrote it, so a program can leak it through a map.
Check ret >= 0 before calling add_exception_handler(), and pass rd for
LOAD_ACQ so the fault zeroes rd like a PROBE_MEM load. Return ret
unchanged for the zext skip.
