From 3404be67bf73515babd74acd8525d09dafe4234d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2020 23:18:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/slab: expand CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED to include SLAB Patch series "mm: Expand CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED to include SLAB" In reviewing Vlastimil Babka's latest slub debug series, I realized[1] that several checks under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED weren't being applied to SLAB. Fix this by expanding the Kconfig coverage, and adding a simple double-free test for SLAB. This patch (of 2): Include SLAB caches when performing kmem_cache pointer verification. A defense against such corruption[1] should be applied to all the allocators. With this added, the "SLAB_FREE_CROSS" and "SLAB_FREE_PAGE" LKDTM tests now pass on SLAB: lkdtm: Performing direct entry SLAB_FREE_CROSS lkdtm: Attempting cross-cache slab free ... ------------[ cut here ]------------ cache_from_obj: Wrong slab cache. lkdtm-heap-b but object is from lkdtm-heap-a WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 2195 at mm/slab.h:530 kmem_cache_free+0x8d/0x1d0 ... lkdtm: Performing direct entry SLAB_FREE_PAGE lkdtm: Attempting non-Slab slab free ... ------------[ cut here ]------------ virt_to_cache: Object is not a Slab page!
