Subject: [PATCH] usb: Fix null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb()
Date: Sat, 11 Jan 2025 20:08:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Z4LP0VsyOkaRBQL9@qasdev.system> (raw)

This patch addresses a null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb() due to
an incorrect bounds check in the following:

""
       if (newport > serial->num_ports) {
	       dev_err(&port->dev,
		       "%s - port change to invalid port: %i\n",
		       __func__, newport);
	       break;
       }
""

The condition doesn't account for the valid range of the serial->port
buffer, which is from 0 to serial->num_ports - 1. When newport is equal
to serial->num_ports, the assignment of "port" in the
following code is out-of-bounds and NULL:

""
       serial_priv->current_port = newport;
       port = serial->port[serial_priv->current_port];

""

The fix checks if newport is greater than or equal to serial->num_ports
indicating it is out-of-bounds.
