Subject: Re: [PATCH v4] zfcp: Fix integer underflow in status read buffer payload length
Date: Mon, 05 Oct 2026 09:55:59 +0000 [thread overview]

In-Reply-To: <20261005094631.3361197-1-ajaykr@linux.ibm.com>
> zfcp_dbf_hba_fsf_uss() only guards against a zero-length status read
> buffer. If srb->length is smaller than the fixed header size of
> struct fsf_status_read_buffer, subtracting the payload offset
> underflows and can lead to an out-of-bounds read.

> zfcp_dbf_san_in_els() has the same issue, where the underflowed value
> is used as the scatterlist payload length.
>
> Fix both cases by validating srb->length before subtracting the payload
> offset. If the reported buffer length does not reach the payload area,
> prevent payload access and treat the payload as empty.
>
> For SAN tracing, retain the original channel-reported SRB length in the
> trace record when no valid payload area exists. This preserves trace
> evidence of anomalous firmware-reported lengths for serviceability,
> while using a capture length of zero to ensure that no payload data is
> accessed beyond the reported buffer.

> For valid payloads, preserve the existing tracing behavior.
