This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled can: af_can: prevent potential access of uninitialized member in can_rcv() to the 5.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: can-af_can-prevent-potential-access-of-uninitialized.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 1f966b4a4c5f286fb0c990395f15d07d48464c2c Author: Anant Thazhemadam <anant.thazhemadam@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 4 03:09:05 2020 +0530 can: af_can: prevent potential access of uninitialized member in can_rcv() [ Upstream commit c8c958a58fc67f353289986850a0edf553435702 ] In can_rcv(), cfd->len is uninitialized when skb->len = 0, and this uninitialized cfd->len is accessed nonetheless by pr_warn_once(). Fix this uninitialized variable access by checking cfd->len's validity condition (cfd->len > CAN_MAX_DLEN) separately after the skb->len's condition is checked, and appropriately modify the log messages that are generated as well. In case either of the required conditions fail, the skb is freed and NET_RX_DROP is returned, same as before.
