[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 3/3] safesetid: check size of policy writes

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Jan 26 2025 - 10:21:50 EST


From: Leo Stone <leocstone@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f09ff307c7299392f1c88f763299e24bc99811c7 ]

syzbot attempts to write a buffer with a large size to a sysfs entry
with writes handled by handle_policy_update(), triggering a warning
in kmalloc.

Check the size specified for write buffers before allocating.
