commit 8b79feffeca28c5459458fe78676b081e87c93a4 upstream. Various PV features (Async PF, PV EOI, steal time) work through memory shared with hypervisor and when we restore from hibernation we must properly teardown all these features to make sure hypervisor doesn't write to stale locations after we jump to the previously hibernated kernel (which can try to place anything there). For secondary CPUs the job is already done by kvm_cpu_down_prepare(), register syscore ops to do the same for boot CPU.

commit c02027b5742b5aa804ef08a4a9db433295533046 upstream. Currenly, we disable kvmclock from machine_shutdown() hook and this only happens for boot CPU. We need to disable it for all CPUs to guard against memory corruption e.g. on restore from hibernate. Note, writing '0' to kvmclock MSR doesn't clear memory location, it just prevents hypervisor from updating the location so for the short while after write and while CPU is still alive, the clock remains usable and correct so we don't need to switch to some other clocksource.

commit 3d6b84132d2a57b5a74100f6923a8feb679ac2ce upstream. Crash shutdown handler only disables kvmclock and steal time, other PV features remain active so we risk corrupting memory or getting some side-effects in kdump kernel. Move crash handler to kvm.c and unify with CPU offline.

Hi @mngyadam , Thanks for contributing, if these were backported to 4.19.y, these will directly be on target list of commits to backport in upcoming releases. Do you have any plans to backport them to 4.19.y stable ? |
I understand the concern here, unfortunately we don't maintain 4.19 so we wouldn't be able to verify/test the backports on that kernel version. |
Hi Adam, Thanks for letting me know. We will take your backports for the next tag, thanks for your contributions :) Thanks, |
commit d3b17c6d9dddc2db3670bc9be628b122416a3d26 upstream. Using completion_done to determine whether the caller has gone away only works after a complete call. Furthermore it's still possible that the caller has not yet called wait_for_completion, resulting in another potential UAF. Fix this by making the caller use cancel_work_sync and then freeing the memory safely.

Hi @mngyadam These three fixes were taken in for 4.14.349-openela .(Released 6 hrs back) Thanks for your contribution. |
Hello,
These three patches is for fixing CVE-2021-47110, these were backported in upstream to 5.10& 5.4 as well. would be good to have this applied.
Thanks,
MNAdam
