fbdev: Fix fb_set_var to prevent null-ptr-deref in fb_videomode_to_var

2025-06-27T10:04:13+00:00

commit 05f6e183879d9785a3cdf2f08a498bc31b7a20aa upstream. If fb_add_videomode() in fb_set_var() fails to allocate memory for fb_videomode, later it may lead to a null-ptr dereference in fb_videomode_to_var(), as the fb_info is registered while not having the mode in modelist that is expected to be there, i.e. the one that is described in fb_info->var. ================================================================ general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f] CPU: 1 PID: 30371 Comm: syz-executor.1 Not tainted 5.10.226-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.12.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:fb_videomode_to_var+0x24/0x610 drivers/video/fbdev/core/modedb.c:901 Call Trace: display_to_var+0x3a/0x7c0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:929 fbcon_resize+0x3e2/0x8f0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:2071 resize_screen drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:1176 [inline] vc_do_resize+0x53a/0x1170 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:1263 fbcon_modechanged+0x3ac/0x6e0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:2720 fbcon_update_vcs+0x43/0x60 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:2776 do_fb_ioctl+0x6d2/0x740 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:1128 fb_ioctl+0xe7/0x150 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:1203 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:48 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:753 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:739 [inline] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x19a/0x210 fs/ioctl.c:739 do_syscall_64+0x33/0x40 arch/x86/entry/common.c:46 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x67/0xd1 ================================================================ The reason is that fb_info->var is being modified in fb_set_var(), and then fb_videomode_to_var() is called. If it fails to add the mode to fb_info->modelist, fb_set_var() returns error, but does not restore the old value of fb_info->var. Restore fb_info->var on failure the same way it is done earlier in the function. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

fbmem: Reject FB_ACTIVATE_KD_TEXT from userspace

2023-04-20T10:10:25+00:00

commit 6fd33a3333c7916689b8f051a185defe4dd515b0 upstream. This is an oversight from dc5bdb68b5b3 ("drm/fb-helper: Fix vt restore") - I failed to realize that nasty userspace could set this. It's not pretty to mix up kernel-internal and userspace uapi flags like this, but since the entire fb_var_screeninfo structure is uapi we'd need to either add a new parameter to the ->fb_set_par callback and fb_set_par() function, which has a _lot_ of users. Or some other fairly ugly side-channel int fb_info. Neither is a pretty prospect. Instead just correct the issue at hand by filtering out this kernel-internal flag in the ioctl handling code.

fbcon: Prevent that screen size is smaller than font size

2022-07-12T14:32:18+00:00

commit e64242caef18b4a5840b0e7a9bff37abd4f4f933 upstream. We need to prevent that users configure a screen size which is smaller than the currently selected font size. Otherwise rendering chars on the screen will access memory outside the graphics memory region. This patch adds a new function fbcon_modechange_possible() which implements this check and which later may be extended with other checks if necessary. The new function is called from the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl handler in fbmem.c, which will return -EINVAL if userspace asked for a too small screen size.

fbmem: pull fbcon_update_vcs() out of fb_set_var()

2020-08-04T05:37:23+00:00

syzbot is reporting OOB read bug in vc_do_resize() [1] caused by memcpy() based on outdated old_{rows,row_size} values, for resize_screen() can recurse into vc_do_resize() which changes vc->vc_{cols,rows} that outdates old_{rows,row_size} values which were saved before calling resize_screen(). Daniel Vetter explained that resize_screen() should not recurse into fbcon_update_vcs() path due to FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT being still set when calling resize_screen(). Instead of masking FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT before calling fbcon_update_vcs(), we can remove FBINFO_MISC_USEREVENT by calling fbcon_update_vcs() only if fb_set_var() returned 0. This change assumes that it is harmless to call fbcon_update_vcs() when fb_set_var() returned 0 without reaching fb_notifier_call_chain().
