From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx> 3.4.107-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ commit 6ada1fc0e1c4775de0e043e1bd3ae9d065491aa5 upstream. An unvalidated user input is multiplied by a constant, which can result in an undefined behaviour for large values. While this is validated later, we should avoid triggering undefined behaviour.
