[PATCH 3.16 109/129] xen, cpu_hotplug: Prevent an out of bounds access

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

 



3.16.70-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 201676095dda7e5b31a5e1d116d10fc22985075e upstream.

The "cpu" variable comes from the sscanf() so Smatch marks it as
untrusted data.  We can't pass a higher value than "nr_cpu_ids" to
cpu_possible() or it results in an out of bounds access.
