[PATCH 4.20 100/145] brcmfmac: Fix out of bounds memory access during fw load
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 07 2019 - 07:44:36 EST
4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Lyude Paul <lyude@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit b72c51a58e6d63ef673ac96b8ab5bc98799c5f7b upstream.
I ended up tracking down some rather nasty issues with f2fs (and other
filesystem modules) constantly crashing on my kernel down to a
combination of out of bounds memory accesses, one of which was coming
from brcmfmac during module load:

[ 31.096533] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
It appears that when trying to determine the length of the string in the
alternate firmware path, we make the mistake of not handling the case
where the firmware path is empty correctly. Since strlen(mp_path) can
return 0, we'll end up accessing mp_path[-1] when the firmware_path
isn't provided through the module arguments.
So, fix this by just setting the end char to '\0' by default, and only
changing it if we have a non-zero length. Additionally, use strnlen()
with BRCMF_FW_ALTPATH_LEN instead of strlen() just to be extra safe.
