[PATCH] tty: serial: mpc52xx_uart: add bounds check for psc_num array index

From: Rosen Penev

Date: Sat May 30 2026 - 02:13:16 EST


psc_num is derived from port->mapbase bits 11:8, giving a range of
0-15, but the psc_mclk_clk and psc_ipg_clk arrays are sized to
MPC52xx_PSC_MAXNUM (12 when CONFIG_PPC_MPC512x is set). A malformed
device tree with bits 11:8 >= 12 would cause out-of-bounds writes
in mpc512x_psc_alloc_clock() and out-of-bounds reads/writes in
mpc512x_psc_relse_clock() and mpc512x_psc_endis_clock(). The same
unchecked index also appears in mpc512x_psc_handle_irq().

Add ARRAY_SIZE() bounds checks to all four functions before using
psc_num as an array index.
