4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Harry Morris <h.morris@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 86674a97f5055f4c7f406563408096e8cf9364ff ] In ca8210_test_int_user_write() a user can request the transfer of a frame with a length field (command.length) that is longer than the actual buffer provided (len). In this scenario the driver will copy the buffer contents into the uninitialised command[] buffer, then transfer <data.length> bytes over the SPI even though only <len> bytes had been populated, potentially leaking sensitive kernel memory. Also the first 6 bytes of the command buffer must be initialised in case a malformed, short packet is written and the uninitialised bytes are read in ca8210_test_check_upstream.
