Subject: [PATCH 09/11] ALSA: line6: Reject too small max packet sizes
Date: Thu,  8 Oct 2026 21:25:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008192553.300025-10-tiwai@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008192553.300025-1-tiwai@suse.de>

Although the LINE6 driver has a sanity check for the given max packet
sizes, it still has an implicit requirement of the minimal size being
bytes-per-frame; e.g. the impulse test signal assuming the fixed size,
and when a too small size is specified by a malformed USB descriptor,
this may lead to an OOB access.

Change the sanity check conditions to reject too small max packet
sizes for avoiding the scenario above.

Fixes: 3450121997ce ("ALSA: line6: Fix write on zero-sized buffer")
