[PATCH 1/5] iio: proximity: hx9023s: fix out-of-bounds access when copying firmware

From: Yasin Lee

Date: Sun Feb 08 2026 - 22:40:29 EST


Initialize fw_size before copying firmware data into the flexible
array member to match the __counted_by() annotation. This fixes a
potential out-of-bounds access that could lead to a kernel crash.
