[PATCH 4.9 48/83] termios, tty/tty_baudrate.c: fix buffer overrun

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

 



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

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

From: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 991a25194097006ec1e0d2e0814ff920e59e3465 upstream.

On architectures with CBAUDEX == 0 (Alpha and PowerPC), the code in tty_baudrate.c does
not do any limit checking on the tty_baudrate[] array, and in fact a
buffer overrun is possible on both architectures. Add a limit check to
prevent that situation.

This will be followed by a much bigger cleanup/simplification patch.
