      "title": "riscv: futex: untag the user pointer before the atomic access",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nriscv: futex: untag the user pointer before the atomic access\n\naccess_ok() checks untagged_addr(uaddr), but arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser()\nand futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() hand the raw uaddr to the inline asm\namoswap/amoadd/.../lr.w+sc.w through the \"+m\" (*uaddr) operand.  When the\ntagged address ABI is enabled (CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_SUPM, prctl\nPR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL with PMLEN != 0), those two addresses differ: a\nuser pointer whose top PMLEN bits hold a tag passes access_ok() after\nuntagging, but the atomic is then performed on the still-tagged raw\naddress.\n\nSupervisor-mode data accesses are not subject to the U-mode pointer\nmasking (that is governed by menvcfg.PMM, which the kernel does not set),\nso hardware does not strip the tag for the kernel's own access.  With\nSv57 and PMLEN=16 the tag bits overlap the canonical-address bits, so a\ntagged pointer can name a canonical kernel virtual address (e.g. in the\nlinear map) whose untagged form is a valid user address.  An unprivileged\nprocess can thus make FUTEX_WAKE_OP perform an atomic read-modify-write on\nan arbitrary kernel address, with the matching FUTEX_OP_CMP_* result\nserving as a read oracle.\n\nget_user()/put_user()/raw_copy_{to,from}_user() already untag the pointer\nafter the access_ok() check; do the same in the futex helpers so the\natomic operates on the address that was actually validated.",
