There used to be an integer overflow check in proc_do_submiturb() but we removed it. It turns out that it's still required. The uurb->buffer_length variable is a signed integer and it's controlled by the user. It can lead to an integer overflow when we do: num_sgs = DIV_ROUND_UP(uurb->buffer_length, USB_SG_SIZE); If we strip away the macro then that line looks like this: num_sgs = (uurb->buffer_length + USB_SG_SIZE - 1) / USB_SG_SIZE; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It's the first addition which can overflow.
