Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y] ALSA: hda/hdmi: clamp sad_count in ELD proc write handler
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 11:02:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110160211.2388041-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107061936-failed-5.10-b3e7ddd694f8@kernel.org>

From: Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@linux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit b3e7ddd694f8429217ba509b55b910a0e4361dfb ]

snd_hdmi_write_eld_info() parses a "sad_count N" line from the
root-writable ELD proc interface and assigns N directly to
e->sad_count with no upper bound, unlike the per-index "sadN_*" lines
a few lines below which are already bounded to ELD_MAX_SAD.

snd_hdmi_eld_update_pcm_info() later iterates
"for (i = 0; i < e->sad_count; i++)" over the fixed
e->sad[ELD_MAX_SAD] array, so an oversized sad_count read from the
proc file causes it to walk past the array.

Reject sad_count values above ELD_MAX_SAD, matching the existing
per-index guard.
