Subject: [PATCH v5 7/9] platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: validate SPM state returned by firmware
Date: Wed,  7 Oct 2026 18:47:09 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007134711.473857-8-meatuni001@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261007134711.473857-1-meatuni001@gmail.com>

status_show() indexes the 3-entry spm_state_types[] with the state byte
returned by firmware. update_spm_state() stores the same byte, which
key_mechanism_show() uses to index the 3-entry spm_mechanism_types[].
Neither is range checked, so a state above 2 makes the world-readable
status and key_mechanism files print a string from a pointer read past
the array.

Return -EIO for an out of range state.

Compile tested only.
