From 802762cdfff256b6bf3fdb624ac2c56ec043c4f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Thu, 25 May 2017 21:40:22 -0700 Subject: randstruct: Whitelist big_key path struct overloading MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The big_key payload structure intentionally stores a struct path in two void pointers to avoid header soup. Whitelist this case: security/keys/big_key.c: In function ‘big_key_read’: security/keys/big_key.c:293:16: note: found mismatched rhs struct pointer types: ‘struct path’ and ‘void *’ struct path *path = (struct path *)&key->payload.data[big_key_path]; ^~~~ Cc: David Howells Signed-off-by: Kees Cook --- scripts/gcc-plugins/randomize_layout_plugin.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'scripts/gcc-plugins') diff --git a/scripts/gcc-plugins/randomize_layout_plugin.c b/scripts/gcc-plugins/randomize_layout_plugin.c index 2e710bf29699..c07818dac401 100644 --- a/scripts/gcc-plugins/randomize_layout_plugin.c +++ b/scripts/gcc-plugins/randomize_layout_plugin.c @@ -48,6 +48,8 @@ struct whitelist_entry { static const struct whitelist_entry whitelist[] = { /* unix_skb_parms via UNIXCB() buffer */ { "net/unix/af_unix.c", "unix_skb_parms", "char" }, + /* big_key payload.data struct splashing */ + { "security/keys/big_key.c", "path", "void *" }, /* walk struct security_hook_heads as an array of struct list_head */ { "security/security.c", "list_head", "security_hook_heads" }, { } -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
