CVE-2024-50072 at MITRE

Description

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

x86/bugs: Use code segment selector for VERW operand

Robert Gill reported below #GP in 32-bit mode when dosemu software was
executing vm86() system call:

general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
CPU: 4 PID: 4610 Comm: dosemu.bin Not tainted 6.6.21-gentoo-x86 #1
Hardware name: Dell Inc. PowerEdge 1950/0H723K, BIOS 2.7.0 10/30/2010

This only happens in 32-bit mode when VERW based mitigations like MDS/RFDS
are enabled. This is because segment registers with an arbitrary user value
can result in #GP when executing VERW. Intel SDM vol. 2C documents the
following behavior for VERW instruction:

#GP(0) - If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES,
FS, or GS segment limit.

CLEAR_CPU_BUFFERS macro executes VERW instruction before returning to user
space. Use %cs selector to reference VERW operand. This ensures VERW will
not #GP for an arbitrary user %ds.

[ mingo: Fixed the SOB chain. ]
