xprtrdma: Store RDMA credits in unsigned variables
Dan Carpenter's static checker pointed out: net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/rpc_rdma.c:879 rpcrdma_reply_handler() warn: can 'credits' be negative? "credits" is defined as an int. The credits value comes from the server as a 32-bit unsigned integer. A malicious or broken server can plant a large unsigned integer in that field which would result in an underflow in the following logic, potentially triggering a deadlock of the mount point by blocking the client from issuing more RPC requests. net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/rpc_rdma.c: 876 credits = be32_to_cpu(headerp->rm_credit); 877 if (credits == 0) 878 credits = 1; /* don't deadlock */ 879 else if (credits > r_xprt->rx_buf.rb_max_requests) 880 credits = r_xprt->rx_buf.rb_max_requests; 881 882 cwnd = xprt->cwnd; 883 xprt->cwnd = credits << RPC_CWNDSHIFT; 884 if (xprt->cwnd > cwnd) 885 xprt_release_rqst_cong(rqst->rq_task); Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Fixes: eba8ff660b2d ("xprtrdma: Move credit update to RPC . . .")
