Hi vmwgfx maintainers,
An out-of-bound access in vmwgfx specific framebuffer implementation can be easily triggered by fbterm (a framebuffer terminal emulator) when it is going to scroll screen.
With some debugging, it seems that vmw_fb_dirty_flush() cannot handle the vinfo.yoffset correctly after calling `ioctl(fbdev_fd, FBIOPAN_DISPLAY, &vinfo);`, and then subsequent access to the mapped memory area causes the oops.
As current mainline vmwgfx implementation (in Linux 6.2-rc) has removed this framebuffer implementation, this bug can be triggered only in Linux stable. I have tested it with vanilla 6.1.8 and 5.10.165 and they all oops.
This bug is reported in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1029602 first, and the maintainer there suggests me to report this issue to upstream :)
Relevant information (for self-compiled Linux 6.1.8):
- /proc/version: Linux version 6.1.8 (tao@mira) (gcc (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2) #7 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Jan 30 21:09:02 CST 2023
- Linux distribution: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
- Architecture (uname -mi): x86_64 unknown
- Virtualization software: VMware Fusion 13 Player
- How to reproduce: 1. Install (or compile) fbterm 2. Run fbterm under a tty (by a user with read & write permission to /dev/fb0, usually users in video group), and try to make it scroll (for example by pressing Enter for a few seconds) 3. The graphics hang and it oops.
