libfs: fix infoleak in simple_attr_read()
Reading from a debugfs file at a nonzero position, without first reading at position 0, leaks uninitialized memory to userspace. It's a bit tricky to do this, since lseek() and pread() aren't allowed on these files, and write() doesn't update the position on them. But writing to them with splice() *does* update the position: #define _GNU_SOURCE 1 #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> int main() { int pipes[2], fd, n, i; char buf[32]; pipe(pipes); write(pipes[1], "0", 1); fd = open("/sys/kernel/debug/fault_around_bytes", O_RDWR); splice(pipes[0], NULL, fd, NULL, 1, 0); n = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)); for (i = 0; i < n; i++) printf("%02x", buf[i]); printf("\n"); } Output: 5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5a30 Fix the infoleak by making simple_attr_read() always fill simple_attr::get_buf if it hasn't been filled yet.
