Subject: [PATCH 7.2 35/82] nfc: fdp: bound the device-reported read length and fix an skb leak
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 15:25:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825132542.882765176@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825132541.560541185@linuxfoundation.org>
7.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Bryam Vargas <hexlabsecurity@proton.me>
commit 7ad21dcfeb5181af0c3ee2608808c0c0a5283aa1 upstream.
fdp_nci_i2c_read() takes the next packet length from two device-supplied
bytes and never validates it. The value is a u16 used as the
i2c_master_recv() count into a 261-byte on-stack buffer: a malicious,
counterfeit or malfunctioning controller (or an i2c bus interposer) can
drive it far past the buffer for a stack out-of-bounds write that
clobbers the canary and return address, or below the minimum frame size
(directly, or by truncating the computed sum) so the header/LRC strip
and the next length read run past a short receive. Reject a length
outside [FDP_NCI_I2C_MIN_PAYLOAD, FDP_NCI_I2C_MAX_PAYLOAD], as a
corrupted packet already is, and force resynchronization.
The same loop allocates one data skb per iteration and assumes a length
packet followed by a data packet; a device that sends two data packets
in one call leaks the first skb when the second allocation overwrites
it. Free a previously allocated skb before allocating the next.
Fixes: a06347c04c13 ("NFC: Add Intel Fields Peak NFC solution driver")
