Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17-5.15] scsi: libfc: Fix potential buffer overflow in fc_ct_ms_fill()
Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2025 11:57:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251025160905.3857885-246-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251025160905.3857885-1-sashal@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 072fdd4b0be9b9051bdf75f36d0227aa705074ba ]

The fc_ct_ms_fill() helper currently formats the OS name and version
into entry->value using "%s v%s". Since init_utsname()->sysname and
->release are unbounded strings, snprintf() may attempt to write more
than FC_FDMI_HBA_ATTR_OSNAMEVERSION_LEN bytes, triggering a
-Wformat-truncation warning with W=1.

In file included from drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_elsct.c:18:
drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_encode.h: In function ‘fc_ct_ms_fill.constprop’:
drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_encode.h:359:30: error: ‘%s’ directive output may

and 126 [-Werror=format-truncation=]

      |                         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by using "%.62s v%.62s", which ensures sysname and release are
truncated to fit within the 128-byte field defined by
FC_FDMI_HBA_ATTR_OSNAMEVERSION_LEN.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

YES
- The updated format string in `drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_encode.h:356` caps
  both `init_utsname()->sysname` and `init_utsname()->release` at 62
  characters, keeping the composed `"OS vversion"` entry within the
  128-byte field defined for `FC_FDMI_HBA_ATTR_OSNAMEVERSION_LEN` at
  `include/scsi/fc/fc_ms.h:92`. This directly prevents the -Wformat-
  truncation build failure reported when compiling with `make W=1`, so
  it resolves a real build bug without changing any control flow.
- Runtime impact is limited to at most two characters of each component
  being truncated, which is already acceptable for this management
  payload and smaller than the silent truncation that happened
  previously when both strings were long.
- The patch is tiny, self-contained in libfc’s FDMI attribute formatting
  helper, and introduces no dependency or architectural change, so
  regression risk is negligible while restoring clean W=1 builds for
  stable users who enable those checks.
