See the details in the commit message (TL/DR: under CAP_BPF, the verifier can incorrectly conclude that a scalar is zero while in fact it can be crafted to a predefined number.)
v1 and v2 were sent off-list.
v2 changes:
Added more tests, migrated them to inline asm, started using bpf_get_prandom_u32, switched to a more bulletproof dead branch check and modified the failing spill test scenarios so that an unauthorized access attempt is performed in both branches.
v3 changes:
Dropped an improvement not necessary for the fix, changed the Fixes tag.
v4 changes:
Dropped supposedly redundant tests, kept the ones that result in different verifier verdicts. Dropped the variable that is not yet useful in this patch. Rephrased the commit message with Daniel's suggestions.
Maxim Mikityanskiy (2): bpf: Fix verifier id tracking of scalars on spill selftests/bpf: Add test cases to assert proper ID tracking on spill

The following scenario describes a bug in the verifier where it incorrectly concludes about equivalent scalar IDs which could lead to verifier bypass in privileged mode:
1. Prepare a 32-bit rogue number. 2. Put the rogue number into the upper half of a 64-bit register, and roll a random (unknown to the verifier) bit in the lower half. The rest of the bits should be zero (although variations are possible). 3. Assign an ID to the register by MOVing it to another arbitrary register. 4. Perform a 32-bit spill of the register, then perform a 32-bit fill to another register. Due to a bug in the verifier, the ID will be preserved, although the new register will contain only the lower 32 bits, i.e. all zeros except one random bit.
At this point there are two registers with different values but the same ID, which means the integrity of the verifier state has been corrupted.
5. Compare the new 32-bit register with 0. In the branch where it's equal to 0, the verifier will believe that the original 64-bit register is also 0, because it has the same ID, but its actual value still contains the rogue number in the upper half. Some optimizations of the verifier prevent the actual bypass, so extra care is needed: the comparison must be between two registers, and both branches must be reachable (this is why one random bit is needed). Both branches are still suitable for the bypass. 6. Right shift the original register by 32 bits to pop the rogue number. 7. Use the rogue number as an offset with any pointer. The verifier will believe that the offset is 0, while in reality it's the given number.
The fix is similar to the 32-bit BPF_MOV handling in check_alu_op for SCALAR_VALUE. If the spill is narrowing the actual register value, don't keep the ID, make sure it's reset to 0.

The previous commit fixed a verifier bypass by ensuring that ID is not preserved on narrowing spills. Add the test cases to check the problematic patterns.

Andrii mentioned he did some veristat measurements and they looked good to him. Looks like patchbot didn't reply, I've pushed it to bpf, thanks!
