In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: VMAP_STACK overflow detection thread-safe
commit 31da94c25aea (riscv: add VMAP_STACK overflow detection) added
support for CONFIG_VMAP_STACK. If overflow is detected, CPU switches to
shadow_stack
temporarily before switching finally to per-cpu
overflow_stack
.
If two CPUs/harts are racing and end up in over flowing kernel stack, one
or both will end up corrupting each other state because shadow_stack
is
not per-cpu. This patch optimizes per-cpu overflow stack switch by
directly picking per-cpu overflow_stack
and gets rid of shadow_stack
.
Following are the changes in this patch
Please see Links for additional relevant disccussion and alternative solution.
