Subject: [PATCH 1/4] efi: loader: fix integer overflow in PE virt_size calculation
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2026 14:36:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260413123646.3552086-1-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
From: Sascha Hauer <sascha@saschahauer.de>
sec->VirtualAddress and section_size() are both u32. Their addition can
wrap on overflow before being widened to unsigned long by max_t. For
example VirtualAddress=0xFFFF0000 + VirtualSize=0x20000 wraps to
0x10000, producing an undersized allocation. The subsequent memset and
memcpy to efi_reloc + sec->VirtualAddress then write far past the
allocated buffer.
On ARM32 (which selects HAVE_EFI_LOADER), unsigned long is also 32 bits,
so a section layout that overflows u32 cannot be mapped in the address
space at all. Use check_add_overflow() to detect the wraparound and
reject the PE image as corrupt.
