If for some reason it return zero, nothing is copied. Also, if usb transfer fail no register values are being copied anywhere. Your patch also allows for memcpy() to be called with 'size' either zero or greater than the allocated buffer size. Please, look at the code carefully. > It might be a better idea to try and mirror the PCI master abort > termination and set memory to 0xFFs instead in such cases. I wasn't aware drivers are now responsible for filling up the memory with anything. Does not sound like a good idea to me. > Fixes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=abbc768b560c84d92fd3 > Reported-by: syzbot+abbc768b560c84d92fd3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Tested-by: syzbot+abbc768b560c84d92fd3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Signed-off-by: Anant Thazhemadam <anant.thazhemadam@xxxxxxxxx> Well, NACK from me. cheers, Petko > --- > drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c | 9 +++++++-- > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c b/drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c > index 733f120c852b..04fca7bfcbcb 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c > +++ b/drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c > @@ -162,8 +162,13 @@ static int get_registers(rtl8150_t * dev, u16 indx, u16 size, void *data) > ret = usb_control_msg(dev->udev, usb_rcvctrlpipe(dev->udev, 0), > RTL8150_REQ_GET_REGS, RTL8150_REQT_READ, > indx, 0, buf, size, 500); > - if (ret > 0 && ret <= size) > + > + if (ret < 0) > + memset(data, 0xff, size); > + > + else > memcpy(data, buf, ret); > + > kfree(buf); > return ret; > } > @@ -276,7 +281,7 @@ static int write_mii_word(rtl8150_t * dev, u8 phy, __u8 indx, u16 reg) > > static inline void set_ethernet_addr(rtl8150_t * dev) > { > - u8 node_id[6]; > + u8 node_id[6] = {0}; > > get_registers(dev, IDR, sizeof(node_id), node_id); > memcpy(dev->netdev->dev_addr, node_id, sizeof(node_id)); > -- > 2.25.1 > >
