Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix OOB memory exposure in get_wave_state()
The get_wave_state() function for v9 trusts cp_hqd_cntl_stack_size and
cp_hqd_cntl_stack_offset values read directly from the MQD, which are
written by GPU microcode and fully attacker-controlled on the
CRIU-restore path (via AMDKFD_IOC_RESTORE_PROCESS with H3).
this leads to an unbounded copy_to_user() that can leak adjacent
GTT/kernel memory. If offset > size, integer underflow produces a ~4 GiB
read length, if size is set to 1 MiB against a 4 KiB allocation, we leak
1 MiB of adjacent kernel memory (other queues' MQDs, ring buffers, KASLR
pointers).
Fix by clamping both cp_hqd_cntl_stack_size to the actual allocated
buffer size (q->ctl_stack_size) and cp_hqd_cntl_stack_offset to the
clamped size before performing arithmetic and copy_to_user().
This ensures we never read beyond the allocated kernel BO regardless of
attacker-supplied MQD field values.
