[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1822726] Re: i40e driver: CVE-2016-8105 X710 buffer overflow cause denial of service

2019-04-03 Thread Dylan Wang
Due to the nature of this issue, no log can be provided

It also require very specific setup to reproduce the issue:

 - A Network Adaptor of Intel X710 Series
 - BMC and host use shared network mode on X710 port
 - trigger a kernel panic on host, BMC IP will be unreachable around 15 mins.

Title:
  i40e driver: CVE-2016-8105 X710 buffer overflow cause denial of
  service

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  See the detailed issue here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en
  /security-center/advisory/intel-sa-00069.html

  On Feb 27, 2017 Intel has revealed this security issue that when the
  rx buffer is full and not being processed, the buffer will hang and
  never reset.

  Recently we found this issue in 18.04.2, we have a shared port setup
  on BMC and host network, where bmc and host share the same nic rx
  queue, when the host kernel panic, the rx queue gradually become full
  and eventually cause DOS on BMC.

  I have verified the issue affects both 18.04-ga (i40e 2.1.14-k) and
  18.04-hwe (i40e 2.3.5), I compile the latest i40e driver 2.7.29 and
  the issue is gone. Intel should had the driver fixed after version
  2.3.6.

  The current i40e driver needs patch.
