Subject: [PATCH] platform/wmi: Fix unchecked min_size in wmidev_invoke_method()
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 08:20:56 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429-invoke-fix-v1-1-ce938eb80cd3@gmail.com> (raw)
After calling wmidev_evaluate_method(), if the ACPI core does not return
an out object, then wmidev_invoke_method() bypasses the min_size check
and returns 0. Add a check for min_size if there is not an out object.
Fixes: 1aeded2f55f0 ("platform/wmi: Extend wmidev_query_block() to reject undersized data")
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260406203237.2970-1-W_Armin%40gmx.de
