[PATCH 6.8 243/336] firewire: nosy: ensure user_length is taken into account when fetching packet contents

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

 



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

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

From: Thanassis Avgerinos <thanassis.avgerinos@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 38762a0763c10c24a4915feee722d7aa6e73eb98 upstream.

Ensure that packet_buffer_get respects the user_length provided. If
the length of the head packet exceeds the user_length, packet_buffer_get
will now return 0 to signify to the user that no data were read
and a larger buffer size is required. Helps prevent user space overflows.
