Subject: [PATCH 1/2] wifi: p54: validate curve data length in p54_parse_eeprom()
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 01:07:39 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827-p54-pda-validation-v1-1-bdc2b0675056@cherr.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827-p54-pda-validation-v1-0-bdc2b0675056@cherr.cc>
p54_convert_rev0() and p54_convert_rev1() walk
channels * (2 + points_per_channel * sizeof(sample)) bytes of the
curve data entry, with both counts taken verbatim from the
device-supplied EEPROM. An entry that declares channels=255,
points_per_channel=255 but carries only the 4-byte header drives a
~191 KB slab-out-of-bounds read past the EEPROM buffer (verified with
a KASAN reproducer of the conversion loop). The sibling converters
p54_convert_output_limits() and p54_convert_db() already validate
their counts against the entry length; this path was missed.
Reject the entry when the counts do not fit in the entry data.
