Backport of: From 2cf2f86e096978ea16c65cea22fcb2fe5a4a5987 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Caswell Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2022 16:18:14 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Fix a UAF resulting from a bug in BIO_new_NDEF If the aux->asn1_cb() call fails in BIO_new_NDEF then the "out" BIO will be part of an invalid BIO chain. This causes a "use after free" when the BIO is eventually freed. Based on an original patch by Viktor Dukhovni and an idea from Theo Buehler. Thanks to Octavio Galland for reporting this issue. --- crypto/asn1/bio_ndef.c | 39 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 32 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) --- a/crypto/asn1/bio_ndef.c +++ b/crypto/asn1/bio_ndef.c @@ -95,12 +95,19 @@ static int ndef_suffix(BIO *b, unsigned static int ndef_suffix_free(BIO *b, unsigned char **pbuf, int *plen, void *parg); +/* + * On success, the returned BIO owns the input BIO as part of its BIO chain. + * On failure, NULL is returned and the input BIO is owned by the caller. + * + * Unfortunately cannot constify this due to CMS_stream() and PKCS7_stream() + */ BIO *BIO_new_NDEF(BIO *out, ASN1_VALUE *val, const ASN1_ITEM *it) { NDEF_SUPPORT *ndef_aux = NULL; BIO *asn_bio = NULL; const ASN1_AUX *aux = it->funcs; ASN1_STREAM_ARG sarg; + BIO *pop_bio = NULL; if (!aux || !aux->asn1_cb) { ASN1err(ASN1_F_BIO_NEW_NDEF, ASN1_R_STREAMING_NOT_SUPPORTED); @@ -116,20 +123,39 @@ BIO *BIO_new_NDEF(BIO *out, ASN1_VALUE * if (!ndef_aux || !asn_bio || !out) goto err; - BIO_asn1_set_prefix(asn_bio, ndef_prefix, ndef_prefix_free); - BIO_asn1_set_suffix(asn_bio, ndef_suffix, ndef_suffix_free); + pop_bio = asn_bio; + + if (BIO_asn1_set_prefix(asn_bio, ndef_prefix, ndef_prefix_free) <= 0 + || BIO_asn1_set_suffix(asn_bio, ndef_suffix, ndef_suffix_free) <= 0 + || BIO_ctrl(asn_bio, BIO_C_SET_EX_ARG, 0, ndef_aux) <= 0) + goto err; /* - * Now let callback prepend any digest, cipher etc BIOs ASN1 structure - * needs. + * Now let the callback prepend any digest, cipher, etc., that the BIO's + * ASN1 structure needs. */ sarg.out = out; sarg.ndef_bio = NULL; sarg.boundary = NULL; - if (aux->asn1_cb(ASN1_OP_STREAM_PRE, &val, it, &sarg) <= 0) + /* + * The asn1_cb(), must not have mutated asn_bio on error, leaving it in the + * middle of some partially built, but not returned BIO chain. + */ + if (aux->asn1_cb(ASN1_OP_STREAM_PRE, &val, it, &sarg) <= 0) { + /* + * ndef_aux is now owned by asn_bio so we must not free it in the err + * clean up block + */ + ndef_aux = NULL; goto err; + } + + /* + * We must not fail now because the callback has prepended additional + * BIOs to the chain + */ ndef_aux->val = val; ndef_aux->it = it; @@ -138,11 +164,11 @@ BIO *BIO_new_NDEF(BIO *out, ASN1_VALUE * ndef_aux->out = out; ndef_aux->derbuf = NULL; - BIO_ctrl(asn_bio, BIO_C_SET_EX_ARG, 0, ndef_aux); - return sarg.ndef_bio; err: + /* BIO_pop() is NULL safe */ + (void)BIO_pop(pop_bio); if (asn_bio) BIO_free(asn_bio); if (ndef_aux)
