To mitigate Spectre v1, the verifier relies on static analysis to deduct constant pointer bounds, which can then be enforced by rewriting pointer arithmetic [1] or index masking [2]. This relies on the fact that every memory region to be accessed has a static upper bound and every date below that bound is accessible. The verifier can only rewrite pointer arithmetic or insert masking instructions to mitigate Spectre v1 if a static upper bound, below of which every access is valid, can be given. When allowing packet pointer comparisons, this introduces a way for the program to effectively construct an accessible pointer for which no static upper bound is known. Intuitively, this is obvious as a packet might be of any size and therefore 0 is the only statically known upper bound below of which every date is always accessible (i.e., none). To clarify, the problem is not that comparing two pointers can be used for pointer leaks in the same way in that comparing a pointer to a known scalar can be used for pointer leaks. That is because the "secret" components of the addresses cancel each other out if the pointers are into the same region. With [3] applied, the following malicious BPF program can be loaded into the kernel without CAP_PERFMON: r2 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 76) // data r3 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 80) // data_end r4 = r2 r4 += 1 if r4 > r3 goto exit r5 = *(u8 *)(r2 + 0) // speculatively read secret r5 &= 1 // choose bit to leak // ... side channel to leak secret bit exit: // ... This is jited to the following amd64 code which still contains the gadget: 0: endbr64 4: nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 9: xchg %ax,%ax b: push %rbp c: mov %rsp,%rbp f: endbr64 13: push %rbx 14: mov 0xc8(%rdi),%rsi // data 1b: mov 0x50(%rdi),%rdx // data_end 1f: mov %rsi,%rcx 22: add $0x1,%rcx 26: cmp %rdx,%rcx 29: ja 0x000000000000003f // branch to mispredict 2b: movzbq 0x0(%rsi),%r8 // speculative load of secret 30: and $0x1,%r8 // choose bit to leak 34: xor %ebx,%ebx 36: cmp %rbx,%r8 39: je 0x000000000000003f // branch based on secret 3b: imul $0x61,%r8,%r8 // leak using port contention side channel 3f: xor %eax,%eax 41: pop %rbx 42: leaveq 43: retq Here I'm using a port contention side channel because storing the secret to the stack causes the verifier to insert an lfence for unrelated reasons (SSB mitigation) which would terminate the speculation. As Daniel already pointed out to me, data_end is even attacker controlled as one could send many packets of sufficient length to train the branch prediction into assuming data_end >= data will never be true. When the attacker then sends a packet with insufficient data, the Spectre v1 gadget leaks the chosen bit of some value that lies behind data_end. To make it clear that the problem is not the pointer comparison but the missing masking instruction, it can be useful to transform the code above into the following equivalent pseudocode: r2 = data r3 = data_end r6 = ... // index to access, constant does not help r7 = data_end - data // only known at runtime, could be [0,PKT_MAX) if !(r6 < r7) goto exit // no masking of index in r6 happens r2 += r6 // addr. to access r5 = *(u8 *)(r2 + 0) // speculatively read secret // ... leak secret as above One idea to resolve this while still allowing for unprivileged packet access would be to always allocate a power of 2 for the packet data and then also pass the respective index mask in the skb structure. The verifier would then have to check that this index mask is always applied to the offset before a packet pointer is dereferenced. This patch does not implement this extension, but only reverts [3].
