Subject: integer overflows in kernel/relay.c
Date: Tue, 7 Feb 2012 17:11:55 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120207141155.GA16184@elgon.mountain> (raw)
My static checker is warning about integer overflows in kernel/relay.c
relay_create_buf()
170
171 buf->padding = kmalloc(chan->n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *), GFP_KERNEL);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This can only overflow on 32bit systems.
172 if (!buf->padding)
173 goto free_buf;
174
relay_open()
582 chan->version = RELAYFS_CHANNEL_VERSION;
583 chan->n_subbufs = n_subbufs;
584 chan->subbuf_size = subbuf_size;
585 chan->alloc_size = FIX_SIZE(subbuf_size * n_subbufs);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
586 chan->parent = parent;
These come from the user in blk_trace_setup() and they aren't capped.
I'm not sure what the maximum size to use is.
regards,
dan carpenter
