[PATCH v2] nvme: remove unprivileged passthrough support

Kanchan Joshi joshi.k at samsung.com
Sun Oct 15 23:05:19 PDT 2023


Passthrough has got a hole that can be exploited to cause kernel memory
corruption. This is about making the device do larger DMA into
short meta/data buffer owned by kernel [1].

As a stopgap measure, disable the support of unprivileged passthrough.

This patch brings back coarse-granular CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks by reverting
following patches:

- 7d9d7d59d44 ("nvme: replace the fmode_t argument to the nvme ioctl handlers with a simple bool")
- 313c08c72ee ("nvme: don't allow unprivileged passthrough on partitions")
- 6f99ac04c46 ("nvme: consult the CSE log page for unprivileged passthrough")
- ea43fceea41 ("nvme: allow unprivileged passthrough of Identify Controller")
- e4fbcf32c86 ("nvme: identify-namespace without CAP_SYS_ADMIN")
- 855b7717f44 ("nvme: fine-granular CAP_SYS_ADMIN for nvme io commands")

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nvme/20231013051458.39987-1-joshi.k@samsung.com/

CC: stable at vger.kernel.org # 6.2
Fixes: 855b7717f44b1 ("nvme: fine-granular CAP_SYS_ADMIN for nvme io commands")
