commit 97e6d7dab1ca4648821c790a2b7913d6d5d549db upstream.

The commit being fixed was aiming to disallow users from incorrectly
obtaining writable pointer to memory that is only meant to be read. This
is enforced now using a MEM_RDONLY flag.

For instance, in case of global percpu variables, when the BTF type is
not struct (e.g. bpf_prog_active), the verifier marks register type as
PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_RDONLY from bpf_this_cpu_ptr or bpf_per_cpu_ptr
helpers. However, when passing such pointer to kfunc, global funcs, or
BPF helpers, in check_helper_mem_access, there is no expectation
MEM_RDONLY flag will be set, hence it is checked as pointer to writable
memory. Later, verifier sets up argument type of global func as
PTR_TO_MEM | PTR_MAYBE_NULL, so user can use a global func to get around
the limitations imposed by this flag.

This check will also cover global non-percpu variables that may be
introduced in kernel BTF in future.

Also, we update the log message for PTR_TO_BUF case to be similar to
PTR_TO_MEM case, so that the reason for error is clear to user.

Fixes: 34d3a78c681e ("bpf: Make per_cpu_ptr return rdonly PTR_TO_MEM.")

It is not permitted to write to PTR_TO_MAP_KEY, but the current code in
check_helper_mem_access would allow for it, reject this case as well, as
helpers taking ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM also take PTR_TO_MAP_KEY.

<title>bpf: Fix ringbuf memory type confusion when passing to helpers</title>

The bpf_ringbuf_submit() and bpf_ringbuf_discard() have ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM
in their bpf_func_proto definition as their first argument, and thus both expect
the result from a prior bpf_ringbuf_reserve() call which has a return type of
RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM_OR_NULL.

While the non-NULL memory from bpf_ringbuf_reserve() can be passed to other
helpers, the two sinks (bpf_ringbuf_submit(), bpf_ringbuf_discard()) right now
only enforce a register type of PTR_TO_MEM.

This can lead to potential type confusion since it would allow other PTR_TO_MEM
memory to be passed into the two sinks which did not come from bpf_ringbuf_reserve().

Add a new MEM_ALLOC composable type attribute for PTR_TO_MEM, and enforce that:

 - bpf_ringbuf_reserve() returns NULL or PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC
 - bpf_ringbuf_submit() and bpf_ringbuf_discard() only take PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC
   but not plain PTR_TO_MEM arguments via ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM
 - however, other helpers might treat PTR_TO_MEM | MEM_ALLOC as plain PTR_TO_MEM
   to populate the memory area when they use ARG_PTR_TO_{UNINIT_,}MEM in their
   func proto description

<title>bpf: Fix out of bounds access for ringbuf helpers</title>

Both bpf_ringbuf_submit() and bpf_ringbuf_discard() have ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM
in their bpf_func_proto definition as their first argument. They both expect
the result from a prior bpf_ringbuf_reserve() call which has a return type of
RET_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM_OR_NULL.

Meaning, after a NULL check in the code, the verifier will promote the register
type in the non-NULL branch to a PTR_TO_MEM and in the NULL branch to a known
zero scalar. Generally, pointer arithmetic on PTR_TO_MEM is allowed, so the
latter could have an offset.

The ARG_PTR_TO_ALLOC_MEM expects a PTR_TO_MEM register type. However, the non-
zero result from bpf_ringbuf_reserve() must be fed into either bpf_ringbuf_submit()
or bpf_ringbuf_discard() but with the original offset given it will then read
out the struct bpf_ringbuf_hdr mapping.

The verifier missed to enforce a zero offset, so that out of bounds access
can be triggered which could be used to escalate privileges if unprivileged
BPF was enabled (disabled by default in kernel).

Right now the assertion on check_ptr_off_reg() is only enforced for register
types PTR_TO_CTX (and open coded also for PTR_TO_BTF_ID), however, this is
insufficient since many other PTR_TO_* register types such as PTR_TO_FUNC do
not handle/expect register offsets when passed to helper functions.

Given this can slip-through easily when adding new types, make this an explicit
allow-list and reject all other current and future types by default if this is
encountered.

Also, extend check_ptr_off_reg() to handle PTR_TO_BTF_ID as well instead of
duplicating it. For PTR_TO_BTF_ID, reg-&gt;off is used for BTF to match expected
BTF ids if struct offset is used. This part still needs to be allowed, but the
dynamic off from the tnum must be rejected.

Similar as with other pointer types where we use ldimm64, clear the register
content to zero first, and then populate the PTR_TO_FUNC type and subprogno
number. Currently this is not done, and leads to reuse of stale register
tracking data.

Given for special ldimm64 cases we always clear the register offset, make it
common for all cases, so it won't be forgotten in future.

<title>bpf: Fix verifier support for validation of async callbacks</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit bfc6bb74e4f1 ("bpf: Implement verifier support for validation of async callbacks.")
added support for BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback to
the __check_func_call() function.  The test in __check_func_call() is
flaweed because it can mis-interpret a regular BPF-to-BPF pseudo-call
as a BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback callback call.

Consider the conditional in the code:

	if (insn-&gt;code == (BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL) &amp;&amp;
	    insn-&gt;imm == BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback) {

The BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback has value 170.  This means that if you
have a BPF program that contains a pseudo-call with an instruction delta
of 170, this conditional will be found to be true by the verifier, and
it will interpret the pseudo-call as a callback.  This leads to a mess
with the verification of the program because it makes the wrong
assumptions about the nature of this call.

Solution: include an explicit check to ensure that insn-&gt;src_reg == 0.
This ensures that calls cannot be mis-interpreted as an async callback
call.

Commit bfc6bb74e4f1 ("bpf: Implement verifier support for validation of async callbacks.")
added support for BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback to
the __check_func_call() function.  The test in __check_func_call() is
flaweed because it can mis-interpret a regular BPF-to-BPF pseudo-call
as a BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback callback call.

Consider the conditional in the code:

	if (insn-&gt;code == (BPF_JMP | BPF_CALL) &amp;&amp;
	    insn-&gt;imm == BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback) {

The BPF_FUNC_timer_set_callback has value 170.  This means that if you
have a BPF program that contains a pseudo-call with an instruction delta
of 170, this conditional will be found to be true by the verifier, and
it will interpret the pseudo-call as a callback.  This leads to a mess
with the verification of the program because it makes the wrong
assumptions about the nature of this call.

Solution: include an explicit check to ensure that insn-&gt;src_reg == 0.
This ensures that calls cannot be mis-interpreted as an async callback
call.

<title>bpf: Don't promote bogus looking registers after null check.</title>

If we ever get to a point again where we convert a bogus looking &lt;ptr&gt;_or_null
typed register containing a non-zero fixed or variable offset, then lets not
reset these bounds to zero since they are not and also don't promote the register
to a &lt;ptr&gt; type, but instead leave it as &lt;ptr&gt;_or_null. Converting to a unknown
register could be an avenue as well, but then if we run into this case it would
allow to leak a kernel pointer this way.
