Subject: [PATCH 5/8] usb: typec: tcpm: validate VDO count before reading Attention status VDO
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 17:52:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2026051350-stimulus-cornflake-d7ae@gregkh> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026051347-clustered-deflected-9543@gregkh>

A broken/malicious device can send the incorrect count for an attention
status VDO, which will cause the kernel to read uninitialized stack data
and send it off elsewhere.

Fix this up by correctly verifying the count for the attention object.
