commit a0c80efe5956ccce9fe7ae5c78542578c07bc20a upstream.

floppy_revalidate() doesn't perform any error handling on lock_fdc()
result. lock_fdc() might actually be interrupted by a signal (it waits for
fdc becoming non-busy interruptibly). In such case, floppy_revalidate()
proceeds as if it had claimed the lock, but it fact it doesn't.

In case of multiple threads trying to open("/dev/fdX"), this leads to
serious corruptions all over the place, because all of a sudden there is
no critical section protection (that'd otherwise be guaranteed by locked
fd) whatsoever.

While at this, fix the fact that the 'interruptible' parameter to
lock_fdc() doesn't make any sense whatsoever, because we always wait
interruptibly anyway.

Most of the lock_fdc() callsites do properly handle error (and propagate
EINTR), but floppy_revalidate() and floppy_check_events() don't. Fix this.

commit 8a0c014cd20516ade9654fc13b51345ec58e7be8 upstream.

This issue was originally fixed in 09954bad4 ("floppy: refactor open()
flags handling").

The fix as a side-effect, however, introduce issue for open(O_ACCMODE)
that is being used for ioctl-only open. I wrote a fix for that, but
instead of it being merged, full revert of 09954bad4 was performed,
re-introducing the O_NDELAY / O_NONBLOCK issue, and it strikes again.

This is a forward-port of the original fix to current codebase; the
original submission had the changelog below:

====
Commit 09954bad4 ("floppy: refactor open() flags handling"), as a
side-effect, causes open(/dev/fdX, O_ACCMODE) to fail. It turns out that
this is being used setfdprm userspace for ioctl-only open().

Reintroduce back the original behavior wrt !(FMODE_READ|FMODE_WRITE)
modes, while still keeping the original O_NDELAY bug fixed.

<title>floppy: check FDC index for errors before assigning it</title>

commit 2e90ca68b0d2f5548804f22f0dd61145516171e3 upstream.

Jordy Zomer reported a KASAN out-of-bounds read in the floppy driver in
wait_til_ready().

Which on the face of it can't happen, since as Willy Tarreau points out,
the function does no particular memory access.  Except through the FDCS
macro, which just indexes a static allocation through teh current fdc,
which is always checked against N_FDC.

Except the checking happens after we've already assigned the value.

The floppy driver is a disgrace (a lot of it going back to my original
horrd "design"), and has no real maintainer.  Nobody has the hardware,
and nobody really cares.  But it still gets used in virtual environment
because it's one of those things that everybody supports.

The whole thing should be re-written, or at least parts of it should be
seriously cleaned up.  The 'current fdc' index, which is used by the
FDCS macro, and which is often shadowed by a local 'fdc' variable, is a
prime example of how not to write code.

But because nobody has the hardware or the motivation, let's just fix up
the immediate problem with a nasty band-aid: test the fdc index before
actually assigning it to the static 'fdc' variable.

[ Upstream commit da99466ac243f15fbba65bd261bfc75ffa1532b6 ]

This fixes a global out-of-bounds read access in the copy_buffer
function of the floppy driver.

The FDDEFPRM ioctl allows one to set the geometry of a disk.  The sect
and head fields (unsigned int) of the floppy_drive structure are used to
compute the max_sector (int) in the make_raw_rw_request function.  It is
possible to overflow the max_sector.  Next, max_sector is passed to the
copy_buffer function and used in one of the memcpy calls.

An unprivileged user could trigger the bug if the device is accessible,
but requires a floppy disk to be inserted.

The patch adds the check for the .sect * .head multiplication for not
overflowing in the set_geometry function.

The bug was found by syzkaller.

[ Upstream commit 9b04609b784027968348796a18f601aed9db3789 ]

This fixes the invalid pointer dereference in the drive_name function of
the floppy driver.

The native_format field of the struct floppy_drive_params is used as
floppy_type array index in the drive_name function.  Thus, the field
should be checked the same way as the autodetect field.

To trigger the bug, one could use a value out of range and set the drive
parameters with the FDSETDRVPRM ioctl.  Next, FDGETDRVTYP ioctl should
be used to call the drive_name.  A floppy disk is not required to be
inserted.

CAP_SYS_ADMIN is required to call FDSETDRVPRM.

The patch adds the check for a value of the native_format field to be in
the '0 &lt;= x &lt; ARRAY_SIZE(floppy_type)' range of the floppy_type array
indices.

The bug was found by syzkaller.

[ Upstream commit f3554aeb991214cbfafd17d55e2bfddb50282e32 ]

This fixes a divide by zero error in the setup_format_params function of
the floppy driver.

Two consecutive ioctls can trigger the bug: The first one should set the
drive geometry with such .sect and .rate values for the F_SECT_PER_TRACK
to become zero.  Next, the floppy format operation should be called.

A floppy disk is not required to be inserted.  An unprivileged user
could trigger the bug if the device is accessible.

The patch checks F_SECT_PER_TRACK for a non-zero value in the
set_geometry function.  The proper check should involve a reasonable
upper limit for the .sect and .rate fields, but it could change the
UAPI.

The patch also checks F_SECT_PER_TRACK in the setup_format_params, and
cancels the formatting operation in case of zero.

The bug was found by syzkaller.

[ Upstream commit f3554aeb991214cbfafd17d55e2bfddb50282e32 ]

This fixes a divide by zero error in the setup_format_params function of
the floppy driver.

Two consecutive ioctls can trigger the bug: The first one should set the
drive geometry with such .sect and .rate values for the F_SECT_PER_TRACK
to become zero.  Next, the floppy format operation should be called.

A floppy disk is not required to be inserted.  An unprivileged user
could trigger the bug if the device is accessible.

set_geometry function.  The proper check should involve a reasonable
upper limit for the .sect and .rate fields, but it could change the

<title>floppy: Do not copy a kernel pointer to user memory in FDGETPRM ioctl</title>

commit 65eea8edc315589d6c993cf12dbb5d0e9ef1fe4e upstream.

The final field of a floppy_struct is the field "name", which is a pointer
to a string in kernel memory.  The kernel pointer should not be copied to
user memory.  The FDGETPRM ioctl copies a floppy_struct to user memory,
including this "name" field.  This pointer cannot be used by the user
and it will leak a kernel address to user-space, which will reveal the
location of kernel code and data and undermine KASLR protection.

Model this code after the compat ioctl which copies the returned data
to a previously cleared temporary structure on the stack (excluding the
name pointer) and copy out to userspace from there.  As we already have
an inparam union with an appropriate member and that memory is already
cleared even for read only calls make use of that as a temporary store.

Based on an initial patch by Brian Belleville.
