[PATCH 4.9 087/101] video: uvesafb: Fix integer overflow in allocation

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jul 01 2018 - 14:09:19 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9f645bcc566a1e9f921bdae7528a01ced5bc3713 upstream.

cmap->len can get close to INT_MAX/2, allowing for an integer overflow in
allocation. This uses kmalloc_array() instead to catch the condition.
