This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tty/vt/keyboard: fix OOB access in do_compute_shiftstate() to the 4.6-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: tty-vt-keyboard-fix-oob-access-in-do_compute_shiftstate.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 510cccb5b0c8868a2b302a0ab524da7912da648b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2016 14:12:34 -0700 Subject: tty/vt/keyboard: fix OOB access in do_compute_shiftstate() From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@xxxxxxxxx> commit 510cccb5b0c8868a2b302a0ab524da7912da648b upstream. The size of individual keymap in drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c is NR_KEYS, which is currently 256, whereas number of keys/buttons in input device (and therefor in key_down) is much larger - KEY_CNT - 768, and that can cause out-of-bound access when we do sym = U(key_maps[0][k]); with large 'k'. To fix it we should not attempt iterating beyond smaller of NR_KEYS and KEY_CNT. Also while at it let's switch to for_each_set_bit() instead of open-coding it.
