From dc4636040671a953ef52494576897b1bc252b207 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KP Singh Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2023 17:09:16 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86/speculation: Allow enabling STIBP with legacy IBRS MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.173 commit abfed855f05863d292de2d0ebab4656791bab9c8 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I6V7TU CVE: CVE-2023-1998 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=abfed855f05863d292de2d0ebab4656791bab9c8 -------------------------------- commit 6921ed9049bc7457f66c1596c5b78aec0dae4a9d upstream. When plain IBRS is enabled (not enhanced IBRS), the logic in spectre_v2_user_select_mitigation() determines that STIBP is not needed. The IBRS bit implicitly protects against cross-thread branch target injection. However, with legacy IBRS, the IBRS bit is cleared on returning to userspace for performance reasons which leaves userspace threads vulnerable to cross-thread branch target injection against which STIBP protects. Exclude IBRS from the spectre_v2_in_ibrs_mode() check to allow for enabling STIBP (through seccomp/prctl() by default or always-on, if selected by spectre_v2_user kernel cmdline parameter).
