Spectre Side Channels
=====================
Spectre is a class of side channel attacks that exploit branch prediction
and speculative execution on modern CPUs to read memory, possibly
bypassing access controls. Speculative execution side channel exploits
do not modify memory but attempt to infer privileged data in the memory.
This document covers Spectre variant 1 and Spectre variant 2.
Affected processors
-------------------
Speculative execution side channel methods affect a wide range of modern
high performance processors, since most modern high speed processors
use branch prediction and speculative execution.
The following CPUs are vulnerable:
- Intel Core, Atom, Pentium, and Xeon processors
- AMD Phenom, EPYC, and Zen processors
- IBM POWER and zSeries processors
- Higher end ARM processors
- Apple CPUs
- Higher end MIPS CPUs
- Likely most other high performance CPUs. Contact your CPU vendor for details.
Whether a processor is affected or not can be read out from the Spectre
vulnerability files in sysfs. See :ref:`spectre_sys_info`.
Related CVEs
------------
The following CVE entries describe Spectre variants:
============= ======================= =================
CVE-2017-5753 Bounds check bypass Spectre variant 1
CVE-2017-5715 Branch target injection Spectre variant 2
============= ======================= =================
Problem
-------
CPUs use speculative operations to improve performance. That may leave
traces of memory accesses or computations in the processor's caches,
buffers, and branch predictors. Malicious software may be able to
influence the speculative execution paths, and then use the side effects
of the speculative execution in the CPUs' caches and buffers to infer
privileged data touched during the speculative execution.
Spectre variant 1 attacks take advantage of speculative execution of
conditional branches, while Spectre variant 2 attacks use speculative
execution of indirect branches to leak privileged memory.
See :ref:`[1] <spec_ref1>` :ref:`[5] <spec_ref5>` :ref:`[7] <spec_ref7>`
:ref:`[10] <spec_ref10>` :ref:`[11] <spec_ref11>`.
Spectre variant 1 (Bounds Check Bypass)
---------------------------------------
The bounds check bypass attack :ref:`[2] <spec_ref2>` takes advantage
of speculative execution that bypasses conditional branch instructions
used for memory access bounds check (e.g. checking if the index of an
array results in memory access within a valid range). This results in
memory accesses to invalid memory (with out-of-bound index) that are
done speculatively before validation checks resolve. Such speculative
memory accesses can leave side effects, creating side channels which
leak information to the attacker.
There are some extensions of Spectre variant 1 attacks for reading data
over the network, see :ref:`[12] <spec_ref12>`. However such attacks
are difficult, low bandwidth, fragile, and are considered low risk.
Spectre variant 2 (Branch Target Injection)
-------------------------------------------
The branch target injection attack takes advantage of speculative
execution of indirect branches :ref:`[3] <spec_ref3>`. The indirect
branch predictors inside the processor used to guess the target of
indirect branches can be influenced by an attacker, causing gadget code
to be speculatively executed, thus exposing sensitive data touched by
the victim. The side effects left in the CPU's caches during speculative
execution can be measured to infer data values.
.. _poison_btb:
In Spectre variant 2 attacks, the attacker can steer speculative indirect
branches in the victim to gadget code by poisoning the branch target
buffer of a CPU used for predicting indirect branch addresses. Such
poisoning could be done by indirect branching into existing code,
with the address offset of the indirect branch under the attacker's
control. Since the branch prediction on impacted hardware does not
fully disambiguate branch address and uses the offset for prediction,
this could cause privileged code's indirect branch to jump to a gadget
code with the same offset.
The most useful gadgets take an attacker-controlled input parameter (such
as a register value) so that the memory read can be controlled. Gadgets
without input parameters might be possible, but the attacker would have
very little control over what memory can be read, reducing the risk of
the attack revealing useful data.
One other variant 2 attack vector is for the attacker to poison the
return stack buffer (RSB) :ref:`[13] <spec_ref13>` to cause speculative
subroutine return instruction execution to go to a gadget. An attacker's
imbalanced subroutine call instructions might "poison" entries in the
return stack buffer which are later consumed by a victim's subroutine
return instructions. This attack can be mitigated by flushing the return
stack buffer on context switch, or virtual machine (VM) exit.
On systems with simultaneous multi-threading (SMT), attacks are possible
from the sibling thread, as level 1 cache and branch target buffer
(BTB) may be shared between hardware threads in a CPU core. A malicious
program running on the sibling thread may influence its peer's BTB to
steer its indirect branch speculations to gadget code, and measure the
speculative execution's side effects left in level 1 cache to infer the
victim's data.
Attack scenarios
----------------
The following list of attack scenarios have been anticipated, but may
not cover all possible attack vectors.
1. A user process attacking the kernel
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The attacker passes a parameter to the kernel via a register or
via a known address in memory during a syscall. Such parameter may
be used later by the kernel as an index to an array or to derive
a pointer for a Spectre variant 1 attack. The index or pointer
is invalid, but bound checks are bypassed in the code branch taken
for speculative execution. This could cause privileged memory to be
accessed and leaked.
For kernel code that has been identified where data pointers could
potentially be influenced for Spectre attacks, new "nospec" accessor
macros are used to prevent speculative loading of data.
Spectre variant 2 attacker can :ref:`poison <poison_btb>` the branch
target buffer (BTB) before issuing syscall to launch an attack.
After entering the kernel, the kernel could use the poisoned branch
target buffer on indirect jump and jump to gadget code in speculative
execution.
If an attacker tries to control the memory addresses leaked during
speculative execution, he would also need to pass a parameter to the
gadget, either through a register or a known address in memory. After
the gadget has executed, he can measure the side effect.
The kernel can protect itself against consuming poisoned branch
target buffer entries by using return trampolines (also known as
"retpoline") :ref:`[3] <spec_ref3>` :ref:`[9] <spec_ref9>` for all
indirect branches. Return trampolines trap speculative execution paths
to prevent jumping to gadget code during speculative execution.
x86 CPUs with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation
(Enhanced IBRS) available in hardware should use the feature to
mitigate Spectre variant 2 instead of retpoline. Enhanced IBRS is
more efficient than retpoline.
There may be gadget code in firmware which could be exploited with
Spectre variant 2 attack by a rogue user process. To mitigate such
attacks on x86, Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation (IBRS) feature
is turned on before the kernel invokes any firmware code.
2. A user process attacking another user process
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A malicious user process can try to attack another user process,
either via a context switch on the same hardware thread, or from the
sibling hyperthread sharing a physical processor core on simultaneous
multi-threading (SMT) system.
Spectre variant 1 attacks generally require passing parameters
between the processes, which needs a data passing relationship, such
as remote procedure calls (RPC). Those parameters are used in gadget
code to derive invalid data pointers accessing privileged memory in
the attacked process.
Spectre variant 2 attacks can be launched from a rogue process by
:ref:`poisoning <poison_btb>` the branch target buffer. This can
influence the indirect branch targets for a victim process that either
runs later on the same hardware thread, or running concurrently on
a sibling hardware thread sharing the same physical core.
A user process can protect itself against Spectre variant 2 attacks
by using the prctl() syscall to disable indirect branch speculation
for itself. An administrator can also cordon off an unsafe process
from polluting the branch target buffer by disabling the process's
indirect branch speculation. This comes with a performance cost
from not using indirect branch speculation and clearing the branch
target buffer. When SMT is enabled on x86, for a process that has
indirect branch speculation disabled, Single Threaded Indirect Branch
Predictors (STIBP) :ref:`[4] <spec_ref4>` are turned on to prevent the
sibling thread from controlling branch target buffer. In addition,
the Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB) is issued to clear the
branch target buffer when context switching to and from such process.
On x86, the return stack buffer is stuffed on context switch.
This prevents the branch target buffer from being used for branch
prediction when the return stack buffer underflows while switching to
a deeper call stack. Any poisoned entries in the return stack buffer
left by the previous process will also be cleared.
User programs should use address space randomization to make attacks
more difficult (Set /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space = 1 or 2).
3. A virtualized guest attacking the host
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The attack mechanism is similar to how user processes attack the
kernel. The kernel is entered via hyper-calls or other virtualization
exit paths.
For Spectre variant 1 attacks, rogue guests can pass parameters
(e.g. in registers) via hyper-calls to derive invalid pointers to
speculate into privileged memory after entering the kernel. For places
where such kernel code has been identified, nospec accessor macros
are used to stop speculative memory access.
For Spectre variant 2 attacks, rogue guests can :ref:`poison
<poison_btb>` the branch target buffer or return stack buffer, causing
the kernel to jump to gadget code in the speculative execution paths.
To mitigate variant 2, the host kernel can use return trampolines
for indirect branches to bypass the poisoned branch target buffer,
and flushing the return stack buffer on VM exit. This prevents rogue
guests from affecting indirect branching in the host kernel.
To protect host processes from rogue guests, host processes can have
indirect branch speculation disabled via prctl(). The branch target
buffer is cleared before context switching to such processes.
4. A virtualized guest attacking other guest
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A rogue guest may attack another guest to get data accessible by the
other guest.
Spectre variant 1 attacks are possible if parameters can be passed
between guests. This may be done via mechanisms such as shared memory
or message passing. Such parameters could be used to derive data
pointers to privileged data in guest. The privileged data could be
accessed by gadget code in the victim's speculation paths.
Spectre variant 2 attacks can be launched from a rogue guest by
:ref:`poisoning <poison_btb>` the branch target buffer or the return
stack buffer. Such poisoned entries could be used to influence
speculation execution paths in the victim guest.
Linux kernel mitigates attacks to other guests running in the same
CPU hardware thread by flushing the return stack buffer on VM exit,
and clearing the branch target buffer before switching to a new guest.
If SMT is used, Spectre variant 2 attacks from an untrusted guest
in the sibling hyperthread can be mitigated by the administrator,
by turning off the unsafe guest's indirect branch speculation via
prctl(). A guest can also protect itself by turning on microcode
based mitigations (such as IBPB or STIBP on x86) within the guest.
.. _spectre_sys_info:
Spectre system information
--------------------------
The Linux kernel provides a sysfs interface to enumerate the current
mitigation status of the system for Spectre: whether the system is
vulnerable, and which mitigations are active.
The sysfs file showing Spectre variant 1 mitigation status is:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v1
The possible values in this file are:
======================================= =================================
'Mitigation: __user pointer sanitation' Protection in kernel on a case by
case base with explicit pointer
sanitation.
======================================= =================================
However, the protections are put in place on a case by case basis,
and there is no guarantee that all possible attack vectors for Spectre
variant 1 are covered.
The spectre_v2 kernel file reports if the kernel has been compiled with
retpoline mitigation or if the CPU has hardware mitigation, and if the
CPU has support for additional process-specific mitigation.
This file also reports CPU features enabled by microcode to mitigate
attack between user processes:
1. Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB) to add additional
isolation between processes of different users.
2. Single Thread Indirect Branch Predictors (STIBP) to add additional
isolation between CPU threads running on the same core.
These CPU features may impact performance when used and can be enabled
per process on a case-by-case base.
The sysfs file showing Spectre variant 2 mitigation status is:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v2
The possible values in this file are:
- Kernel status:
==================================== =================================
'Not affected' The processor is not vulnerable
'Vulnerable' Vulnerable, no mitigation
'Mitigation: Full generic retpoline' Software-focused mitigation
'Mitigation: Full AMD retpoline' AMD-specific software mitigation
'Mitigation: Enhanced IBRS' Hardware-focused mitigation
==================================== =================================
- Firmware status: Show if Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation (IBRS) is
used to protect against Spectre variant 2 attacks when calling firmware (x86 only).
========== =============================================================
'IBRS_FW' Protection against user program attacks when calling firmware
========== =============================================================
- Indirect branch prediction barrier (IBPB) status for protection between
processes of different users. This feature can be controlled through
prctl() per process, or through kernel command line options. This is
an x86 only feature. For more details see below.
=================== ========================================================
'IBPB: disabled' IBPB unused
'IBPB: always-on' Use IBPB on all tasks
'IBPB: conditional' Use IBPB on SECCOMP or indirect branch restricted tasks
=================== ========================================================
- Single threaded indirect branch prediction (STIBP) status for protection
between different hyper threads. This feature can be controlled through
prctl per process, or through kernel command line options. This is x86
only feature. For more details see below.
==================== ========================================================
'STIBP: disabled' STIBP unused
'STIBP: forced' Use STIBP on all tasks
'STIBP: conditional' Use STIBP on SECCOMP or indirect branch restricted tasks
==================== ========================================================
- Return stack buffer (RSB) protection status:
============= ===========================================
'RSB filling' Protection of RSB on context switch enabled
============= ===========================================
Full mitigation might require a microcode update from the CPU
vendor. When the necessary microcode is not available, the kernel will
report vulnerability.
Turning on mitigation for Spectre variant 1 and Spectre variant 2
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Kernel mitigation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For the Spectre variant 1, vulnerable kernel code (as determined
by code audit or scanning tools) is annotated on a case by case
basis to use nospec accessor macros for bounds clipping :ref:`[2]
<spec_ref2>` to avoid any usable disclosure gadgets. However, it may
not cover all attack vectors for Spectre variant 1.
For Spectre variant 2 mitigation, the compiler turns indirect calls or
jumps in the kernel into equivalent return trampolines (retpolines)
:ref:`[3] <spec_ref3>` :ref:`[9] <spec_ref9>` to go to the target
addresses. Speculative execution paths under retpolines are trapped
in an infinite loop to prevent any speculative execution jumping to
a gadget.
To turn on retpoline mitigation on a vulnerable CPU, the kernel
needs to be compiled with a gcc compiler that supports the
-mindirect-branch=thunk-extern -mindirect-branch-register options.
If the kernel is compiled with a Clang compiler, the compiler needs
to support -mretpoline-external-thunk option. The kernel config
CONFIG_RETPOLINE needs to be turned on, and the CPU needs to run with
the latest updated microcode.
On Intel Skylake-era systems the mitigation covers most, but not all,
cases. See :ref:`[3] <spec_ref3>` for more details.
On CPUs with hardware mitigation for Spectre variant 2 (e.g. Enhanced
IBRS on x86), retpoline is automatically disabled at run time.
The retpoline mitigation is turned on by default on vulnerable
CPUs. It can be forced on or off by the administrator
via the kernel command line and sysfs control files. See
:ref:`spectre_mitigation_control_command_line`.
On x86, indirect branch restricted speculation is turned on by default
before invoking any firmware code to prevent Spectre variant 2 exploits
using the firmware.
Using kernel address space randomization (CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_SLAB=y
and CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM=y in the kernel configuration) makes
attacks on the kernel generally more difficult.
2. User program mitigation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
User programs can mitigate Spectre variant 1 using LFENCE or "bounds
clipping". For more details see :ref:`[2] <spec_ref2>`.
For Spectre variant 2 mitigation, individual user programs
can be compiled with return trampolines for indirect branches.
This protects them from consuming poisoned entries in the branch
target buffer left by malicious software. Alternatively, the
programs can disable their indirect branch speculation via prctl()
(See :ref:`Documentation/userspace-api/spec_ctrl.rst <set_spec_ctrl>`).
On x86, this will turn on STIBP to guard against attacks from the
sibling thread when the user program is running, and use IBPB to
flush the branch target buffer when switching to/from the program.
Restricting indirect branch speculation on a user program will
also prevent the program from launching a variant 2 attack
on x86. All sand-boxed SECCOMP programs have indirect branch
speculation restricted by default. Administrators can change
that behavior via the kernel command line and sysfs control files.
See :ref:`spectre_mitigation_control_command_line`.
Programs that disable their indirect branch speculation will have
more overhead and run slower.
User programs should use address space randomization
(/proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space = 1 or 2) to make attacks more
difficult.
3. VM mitigation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Within the kernel, Spectre variant 1 attacks from rogue guests are
mitigated on a case by case basis in VM exit paths. Vulnerable code
uses nospec accessor macros for "bounds clipping", to avoid any
usable disclosure gadgets. However, this may not cover all variant
1 attack vectors.
For Spectre variant 2 attacks from rogue guests to the kernel, the
Linux kernel uses retpoline or Enhanced IBRS to prevent consumption of
poisoned entries in branch target buffer left by rogue guests. It also
flushes the return stack buffer on every VM exit to prevent a return
stack buffer underflow so poisoned branch target buffer could be used,
or attacker guests leaving poisoned entries in the return stack buffer.
To mitigate guest-to-guest attacks in the same CPU hardware thread,
the branch target buffer is sanitized by flushing before switching
to a new guest on a CPU.
The above mitigations are turned on by default on vulnerable CPUs.
To mitigate guest-to-guest attacks from sibling thread when SMT is
in use, an untrusted guest running in the sibling thread can have
its indirect branch speculation disabled by administrator via prctl().
The kernel also allows guests to use any microcode based mitigation
they choose to use (such as IBPB or STIBP on x86) to protect themselves.
.. _spectre_mitigation_control_command_line:
Mitigation control on the kernel command line
---------------------------------------------
Spectre variant 2 mitigation can be disabled or force enabled at the
kernel command line.
nospectre_v2
[X86] Disable all mitigations for the Spectre variant 2
(indirect branch prediction) vulnerability. System may
allow data leaks with this option, which is equivalent
to spectre_v2=off.
spectre_v2=
[X86] Control mitigation of Spectre variant 2
(indirect branch speculation) vulnerability.
The default operation protects the kernel from
user space attacks.
on
unconditionally enable, implies
spectre_v2_user=on
off
unconditionally disable, implies
spectre_v2_user=off
auto
kernel detects whether your CPU model is
vulnerable
Selecting 'on' will, and 'auto' may, choose a
mitigation method at run time according to the
CPU, the available microcode, the setting of the
CONFIG_RETPOLINE configuration option, and the
compiler with which the kernel was built.
Selecting 'on' will also enable the mitigation
against user space to user space task attacks.
Selecting 'off' will disable both the kernel and
the user space protections.
Specific mitigations can also be selected manually:
retpoline
replace indirect branches
retpoline,generic
google's original retpoline
retpoline,amd
AMD-specific minimal thunk
Not specifying this option is equivalent to
spectre_v2=auto.
For user space mitigation:
spectre_v2_user=
[X86] Control mitigation of Spectre variant 2
(indirect branch speculation) vulnerability between
user space tasks
on
Unconditionally enable mitigations. Is
enforced by spectre_v2=on
off
Unconditionally disable mitigations. Is
enforced by spectre_v2=off
prctl
Indirect branch speculation is enabled,
but mitigation can be enabled via prctl
per thread. The mitigation control state
is inherited on fork.
prctl,ibpb
Like "prctl" above, but only STIBP is
controlled per thread. IBPB is issued
always when switching between different user
space processes.
seccomp
Same as "prctl" above, but all seccomp
threads will enable the mitigation unless
they explicitly opt out.
seccomp,ibpb
Like "seccomp" above, but only STIBP is
controlled per thread. IBPB is issued
always when switching between different
user space processes.
auto
Kernel selects the mitigation depending on
the available CPU features and vulnerability.
Default mitigation:
If CONFIG_SECCOMP=y then "seccomp", otherwise "prctl"
Not specifying this option is equivalent to
spectre_v2_user=auto.
In general the kernel by default selects
reasonable mitigations for the current CPU. To
disable Spectre variant 2 mitigations, boot with
spectre_v2=off. Spectre variant 1 mitigations
cannot be disabled.
Mitigation selection guide
--------------------------
1. Trusted userspace
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If all userspace applications are from trusted sources and do not
execute externally supplied untrusted code, then the mitigations can
be disabled.
2. Protect sensitive programs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For security-sensitive programs that have secrets (e.g. crypto
keys), protection against Spectre variant 2 can be put in place by
disabling indirect branch speculation when the program is running
(See :ref:`Documentation/userspace-api/spec_ctrl.rst <set_spec_ctrl>`).
3. Sandbox untrusted programs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Untrusted programs that could be a source of attacks can be cordoned
off by disabling their indirect branch speculation when they are run
(See :ref:`Documentation/userspace-api/spec_ctrl.rst <set_spec_ctrl>`).
This prevents untrusted programs from polluting the branch target
buffer. All programs running in SECCOMP sandboxes have indirect
branch speculation restricted by default. This behavior can be
changed via the kernel command line and sysfs control files. See
:ref:`spectre_mitigation_control_command_line`.
3. High security mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
All Spectre variant 2 mitigations can be forced on
at boot time for all programs (See the "on" option in
:ref:`spectre_mitigation_control_command_line`). This will add
overhead as indirect branch speculations for all programs will be
restricted.
On x86, branch target buffer will be flushed with IBPB when switching
to a new program. STIBP is left on all the time to protect programs
against variant 2 attacks originating from programs running on
sibling threads.
Alternatively, STIBP can be used only when running programs
whose indirect branch speculation is explicitly disabled,
while IBPB is still used all the time when switching to a new
program to clear the branch target buffer (See "ibpb" option in
:ref:`spectre_mitigation_control_command_line`). This "ibpb" option
has less performance cost than the "on" option, which leaves STIBP
on all the time.
