[PATCH v2] softmmu: Use memmove in flatview_write_continue
Posted by Akihiko Odaki 1 year, 2 months ago
We found a case where the source passed to flatview_write_continue() may
overlap with the destination when fuzzing igb, a new proposed network
device with sanitizers.

igb uses pci_dma_map() to get Tx packet, and pci_dma_write() to write Rx
buffer. While pci_dma_write() is usually used to write data from
memory not mapped to the guest, if igb is configured to perform
loopback, the data will be sourced from the guest memory. The source and
destination can overlap and the usage of memcpy() will be invalid in
such a case.

While we do not really have to deal with such an invalid request for
igb, detecting the overlap in igb code beforehand requires complex code,
and only covers this specific case. Instead, just replace memcpy() with
memmove() to tolerate overlaps. Using memmove() will slightly damage the
performance as it will need to check overlaps before using SIMD
instructions for copying, but the cost should be negligible, considering
the inherent complexity of flatview_write_continue().

The test cases generated by the fuzzer is available at:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20230129053316.1071513-1-alxndr@bu.edu/

The fixed test case is:
fuzz/crash_47dfe62d9f911bf523ff48cd441b61c0013ed805
