[PATCH 2/2] nvme: clamp FDP nruhsd to allocated RUH status descriptor count

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Date: Thu Jul 09 2026 - 08:36:22 EST


From: Hari Mishal <harimishal1@xxxxxxxxx>

nvme_query_fdp_info() allocates the RUH status buffer for at most S8_MAX
- 1 descriptors, and then copies ruhs->ruhsd[] into head->plids[] using
the controller reported ruhs->nruhsd directly as the loop bound.
However, that count wasn't taken into account for the actual buffer's
size, so there was a chance for a controller reporting a larger nruhsd
to cause the copy to overflow the buffer. Clamp nr_plids to the same
bound used for the allocation.
