[PATCH v2 1/5] vt: Fix a read-past-array in vc_t416_color().

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

 



This makes it show up on UBSAN:
perl -e 'for (0..15) {my @x=("0")x$_;push @x,qw(38 2 64 128 192 4);printf
"\e[%smAfter %d zeroes.\e[0m\n", join(";",@x[0..($_+5<15?$_+5:15)]), $_}'

Seems harmless: if you can programmatically read attributes of a vt
character (/dev/vcsa*), multiple probes can obtain parts of vt_mode then
lowest byte (5th on 64-bit big-endian) of a pointer.
