fmt->index can be controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. Smatch warning: drivers/media/platform/sh_vou.c:407 sh_vou_enum_fmt_vid_out() warn: potential spectre issue 'vou_fmt' Fix this by sanitizing fmt->index before using it to index vou_fmt. Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].
