In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvme-multipath: fix flex array size in struct nvmenshead

struct nvmenshead contains a flexible array member, currentpath[], which is indexed using the NUMA node ID: head->currentpath[numanodeid()]

The structure is currently allocated as: size = sizeof(struct nvmenshead) + (numpossiblenodes() sizeof(struct nvmens )); head = kzalloc(size, GFPKERNEL);

This allocation assumes that NUMA node IDs are sequential and densely packed from 0 .. numpossiblenodes() - 1. While this assumption holds on many systems, it is not always true on some architectures such as powerpc.

On some powerpc systems, NUMA node IDs can be sparse. For example: NUMA: NUMA node(s): 6 NUMA node0 CPU(s): 80-159 NUMA node8 CPU(s): 0-79 NUMA node252 CPU(s): NUMA node253 CPU(s): NUMA node254 CPU(s): NUMA node255 CPU(s):

That is, the possible/online NUMA node IDs are: 0, 8, 252, 253, 254, 255 In this case: numpossiblenodes() = 6

So memory is allocated for only 6 entries in currentpath[]. However, the array is later indexed using the actual NUMA node ID. As a result, accesses such as: head->currentpath[8] or head->currentpath[252] goes out of bounds, leading to the following KASAN splat:

Fix this by allocating the flexible array using nrnodeids instead of numpossiblenodes(). Since nrnodeids represents the maximum possible NUMA node IDs, indexing currentpath[] using numanodeid() becomes safe even on systems with sparse node IDs.
