Hi all,

I find a potential Use-after-free bug in QEMU 6.2.0, which is in handle_simd_shift_fpint_conv()(./target/arm/translate-a64.c).

At line 9048, a variable 'tcg_fpstatus' is freed by invoking tcg_temp_free_ptr(). However, at line 9050, the variable 'tcg_fpstatus' is subsequently use as the 3rd parameter of the function gen_helper_set_rmode. This may result in a use-after-free bug.


9048    tcg_temp_free_ptr(tcg_fpstatus);
9049    tcg_temp_free_i32(tcg_shift);
9050    gen_helper_set_rmode(tcg_rmode, tcg_rmode, tcg_fpstatus);


I believe the bug can be fixed by invoking the gen_helper_set_rmode() before 'tcg_fpstatus' being freed by the tcg_temp_free_ptr().


 ---    tcg_temp_free_ptr(tcg_fpstatus);
9049    tcg_temp_free_i32(tcg_shift);
9050    gen_helper_set_rmode(tcg_rmode, tcg_rmode, tcg_fpstatus);
 +++    tcg_temp_free_ptr(tcg_fpstatus);
 
I'm looking forward to your confirmation.


Best,

Wentao

The fix is correct.  We just need the submission formatted properly, with your 
Signed-off-by tag.  When re-formatting, you can add my

Thanks; I've applied this patch to target-arm.next (with some cleanup
of the commit message).

PS: the subject line suggests you're creating patches against the 6.2.0
release. For submitting patches to us, please always make them against
the current head-of-git, not against an old release version. (As it
happens, this patch is fine anyway, as the code in question hadn't
changed.)

thanks
