Upon WRMSR, the CPU should inject #GP if a non-canonical value (address) is written to certain MSRs. The behavior is "almost" identical for AMD and Intel (ignoring MSRs that are not implemented in either architecture since they would anyhow #GP). However, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP cause #GP if non-canonical address is written on Intel but not on AMD (which ignores the top 32-bits). Accordingly, this patch injects a #GP on the MSRs which behave identically on Intel and AMD. To eliminate the differences between the architecutres, the value which is written to IA32_SYSENTER_ESP and IA32_SYSENTER_EIP is turned to canonical value before writing instead of injecting a #GP. Some references from Intel and AMD manuals: According to Intel SDM description of WRMSR instruction #GP is expected on WRMSR "If the source register contains a non-canonical address and ECX specifies one of the following MSRs: IA32_DS_AREA, IA32_FS_BASE, IA32_GS_BASE, IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE, IA32_LSTAR, IA32_SYSENTER_EIP, IA32_SYSENTER_ESP." According to AMD manual instruction manual: LSTAR/CSTAR (SYSCALL): "The WRMSR instruction loads the target RIP into the LSTAR and CSTAR registers. If an RIP written by WRMSR is not in canonical form, a general-protection exception (#GP) occurs." IA32_GS_BASE and IA32_FS_BASE (WRFSBASE/WRGSBASE): "The address written to the base field must be in canonical form or a #GP fault will occur." IA32_KERNEL_GS_BASE (SWAPGS): "The address stored in the KernelGSbase MSR must be in canonical form." This patch fixes CVE-2014-3610.
