[PATCH] libdft: fdt_next_tag: Harden offset overflow check

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



As 'offset' is obtained through various paths within the function by
adding user-provided values to 'startoffset' and as we validate its
final value by substracting it from the initial one, there is a risk
that one of the paths might have lead to an overflow, making the check
validate a "negative" (wrong) length, potentially causing fdt_next_tag()
to report an invalid offset as valid through 'nextoffset'.

For example, when parsing an FDT_PROP, we currently validate that

    offset = startoffset + len + FDT_TAGSIZE

doesn't overflow but then assign

    offset = startoffset + len + sizeof(struct fdt_property)

so harden all paths by validating the offset in the very last check.
