Subject: [PATCH] paride: Fixed integer overflow in pt_read and pt_write
Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2022 04:02:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220626110239.GA58252@ubuntu> (raw)
In pt_read() and pt_write(), the "size_t count" variable is
assigned to the "int n" variable and then size check is performed.
static ssize_t pt_write(struct file *filp, const char __user *buf, size_t count, loff_t * ppos)
{
...
int k, n, r, p, s, t, b;
...
while (count > 0) {
if (!pt_poll_dsc(tape, HZ / 100, PT_TMO, "write"))
return -EIO;
n = count;
if (n > 32768)
n = 32768; /* max per command */
If the user passes the SIZE_MAX value to the "count" variable,
the "n" value is greater than 32768, but it becomes a negative
number and passes the size check.
In other words, we need to add a negative check as well,
since the size check makes no sense.
