MdeModulePkg/Core/Dxe: limit FwVol encapsulation section recursion
The DXE Core sets up a protocol notify function in its entry point, for instances of the Firmware Volume Block2 Protocol: DxeMain() [DxeMain/DxeMain.c] FwVolDriverInit() [FwVol/FwVol.c] Assume that a 3rd party UEFI driver or application installs an FVB instance, with crafted contents. The notification function runs: NotifyFwVolBlock() [FwVol/FwVol.c] installing an instance of the Firmware Volume 2 Protocol on the handle. (Alternatively, assume that a 3rd party application calls gDS->ProcessFirmwareVolume(), which may also produce a Firmware Volume 2 Protocol instance.) The EFI_FIRMWARE_VOLUME2_PROTOCOL.ReadSection() member performs "a depth-first, left-to-right search algorithm through all sections found in the specified file" (quoting the PI spec), as follows: FvReadFileSection() [FwVol/FwVolRead.c] GetSection() [SectionExtraction/CoreSectionExtraction.c] FindChildNode() [SectionExtraction/CoreSectionExtraction.c] FindChildNode() // recursive call FindChildNode() is called recursively for encapsulation sections. Currently this recursion is not limited. Introduce a new PCD (fixed-at-build, or patchable-in-module), and make FindChildNode() track the section nesting depth against that PCD.
