[63/91] pcmcia: avoid buffer overflow in pcmcia_setup_isa_irq

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Aug 24 2010 - 19:30:37 EST


2.6.34-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 127c03cdbad9bd5af5d7f33bd31a1015a90cb77f upstream.

NR_IRQS may be as low as 16, causing a (harmless?) buffer overflow in
pcmcia_setup_isa_irq():

static u8 pcmcia_used_irq[NR_IRQS];

...

if ((try < 32) && pcmcia_used_irq[irq])
continue;

This is read-only, so if this address would be non-zero, it would just
mean we would not attempt an IRQ >= NR_IRQS -- which would fail anyway!
And as request_irq() fails for an irq >= NR_IRQS, the setting code path:

pcmcia_used_irq[irq]++;

is never reached as well.
