Subject: [PATCH 3.10 02/23] Char: ipmi_bt_sm, fix infinite loop
Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2014 14:48:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140424214826.212502499@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140424214825.933835556@linuxfoundation.org>

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>

commit a94cdd1f4d30f12904ab528152731fb13a812a16 upstream.

In read_all_bytes, we do

  unsigned char i;
  ...
  bt->read_data[0] = BMC2HOST;
  bt->read_count = bt->read_data[0];
  ...
  for (i = 1; i <= bt->read_count; i++)
    bt->read_data[i] = BMC2HOST;

If bt->read_data[0] == bt->read_count == 255, we loop infinitely in the
'for' loop.  Make 'i' an 'int' instead of 'char' to get rid of the
overflow and finish the loop after 255 iterations every time.
