Subject: [PATCH RESEND] iommu/amd: Avoid stack buffer overflow from kernel cmdline
Date: Mon,  4 Aug 2025 08:40:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250804154023.work.970-kees@kernel.org> (raw)

While the kernel command line is considered trusted in most environments,
avoid writing 1 byte past the end of "acpiid" if the "str" argument is
maximum length.

Reported-by: Simcha Kosman <simcha.kosman@cyberark.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/AS8P193MB2271C4B24BCEDA31830F37AE84A52@AS8P193MB2271.EURP193.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM
Fixes: b6b26d86c61c ("iommu/amd: Add a length limitation for the ivrs_acpihid command-line parameter")
