Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-mapping: benchmark: handle NUMA_NO_NODE correctly
cpumask_of_node() can be called for NUMA_NO_NODE inside do_map_benchmark() resulting in the following sanitizer report:
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in ./arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h:72:28
index -1 is out of range for type ‘cpumask [64][1]’
CPU: 1 PID: 990 Comm: dma_map_benchma Not tainted 6.9.0-rc6 #29
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)
Call Trace:
Use cpumask_of_node() in place when binding a kernel thread to a cpuset of a particular node.
Note that the provided node id is checked inside map_benchmark_ioctl(). It’s just a NUMA_NO_NODE case which is not handled properly later.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org).
