| Name | CVE-2024-47716 |
| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: 9410/1: vfp: Use asm volatile in fmrx/fmxr macros
Floating point instructions in userspace can crash some arm kernels
built with clang/LLD 17.0.6:

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt ]---
This is a minimal userspace reproducer on a Raspberry Pi Zero W:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(void)
{
double v = 1.0;
printf("%fn", NAN + *(volatile double *)&v);
return 0;
}
Another way to consistently trigger the oops is:
calvin@raspberry-pi-zero-w ~$ python -c "import json"
The bug reproduces only when the kernel is built with DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n,
because the pr_debug() calls act as barriers even when not activated.
This is the output from the same kernel source built with the same
compiler and DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, where the userspace reproducer works as
expected:
VFP: bounce: trigger ec532b17 fpexc c0000780
VFP: emulate: INST=0xee377b06 SCR=0x00000000
VFP: bounce: trigger eef1fa10 fpexc c0000780
VFP: emulate: INST=0xeeb40b40 SCR=0x00000000
VFP: raising exceptions 30000000
calvin@raspberry-pi-zero-w ~$ ./vfp-reproducer
nan
Crudely grepping for vmsr/vmrs instructions in the otherwise nearly
idential text for vfp_support_entry() makes the problem obvious:
vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101cb8] <+48>: vmrs r7, fpexc
vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101cd8] <+80>: vmsr fpexc, r0
vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101d20
