This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled thermal: core: prevent potential string overflow to the 5.15-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: thermal-core-prevent-potential-string-overflow.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 021b8603e7b5364da65b188690f275f7e8fe072e Author: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Oct 7 11:59:39 2023 +0300 thermal: core: prevent potential string overflow [ Upstream commit c99626092efca3061b387043d4a7399bf75fbdd5 ] The dev->id value comes from ida_alloc() so it's a number between zero and INT_MAX. If it's too high then these sprintf()s will overflow. Fixes: 203d3d4aa482 ("the generic thermal sysfs driver") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
