Subject: [PATCH] HID: mcp2221: clear rxbuf after I2C/SMBus transfer completes

mcp_i2c_smbus_read() stores the caller-supplied buffer pointer in
mcp->rxbuf for the duration of a transfer but never clears it when the
transfer finishes or times out. Once the caller frees or reuses the
buffer, mcp->rxbuf becomes a dangling pointer. A delayed or spurious
MCP2221_I2C_GET_DATA report can then drive mcp2221_raw_event() to
memcpy device data into the freed memory, causing a write
use-after-free.

Route all return paths through a single exit point that clears
mcp->rxbuf and mcp->rxbuf_size, so that the existing !mcp->rxbuf guard
in the raw_event handler can reject any report arriving after the
transfer has ended.

[PATCH 6.12.y 1/2] HID: mcp2221: fix OOB write in mcp2221_raw_event()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Florian Pradines <florian.pradines@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit f097d246677b03db814c5862f368cea341b76a00 ]

mcp2221_raw_event() copies device-supplied data into mcp->rxbuf at
offset rxbuf_idx without checking that the copy fits within the
destination buffer. A device responding with up to 60 bytes to a
small I2C/SMBus read can overflow the buffer.

Add a rxbuf_size field to struct mcp2221, set it alongside rxbuf in
mcp_i2c_smbus_read(), and check rxbuf_idx + data[3] <= rxbuf_size
before the memcpy.
