Speculative Store Bypass (SSB) is a speculative execution side channel vulnerability identified by Jann Horn of Google Project Zero (GPZ) and Ken Johnson of the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1528. Updated Intel microcode introduces a MSR bit to disable SSB as a mitigation for the vulnerability. Introduce a sysctl hw.spec_store_bypass_disable to provide global control over the SSBD bit, akin to the existing sysctl that controls IBRS. The sysctl can be set to one of three values: 0: off 1: on 2: auto Future work will enable applications to control SSBD on a per-process basis (when it is not enabled globally). SSBD bit detection and control was verified with prerelease microcode. Security: CVE-2018-3639 Tested by: emaste (previous version, without updated microcode) Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation MFC after: 3 days |
