[PATCH 4.4 23/35] USB: serial: safe_serial: fix information leak in completion handler

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8c76d7cd520ebffc1ea9ea0850d87a224a50c7f2 upstream.

Add missing sanity check to the bulk-in completion handler to avoid an
integer underflow that could be triggered by a malicious device.

This avoids leaking up to 56 bytes from after the URB transfer buffer to
user space.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
