If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 52842cbc406b3b0b260db4534ac516e3454dc87a Author: Zhang Shurong <zhang_shurong@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 10 13:32:13 2023 +0800 media: dvb-usb-v2: gl861: Fix null-ptr-deref in gl861_i2c_master_xfer [ Upstream commit b97719a66970601cd3151a3e2020f4454a1c4ff6 ] In gl861_i2c_master_xfer, msg is controlled by user. When msg[i].buf is null and msg[i].len is zero, former checks on msg[i].buf would be passed. Malicious data finally reach gl861_i2c_master_xfer. If accessing msg[i].buf[0] without sanity check, null ptr deref would happen. We add check on msg[i].len to prevent crash.
