[PATCH v3] hwmon: (aquacomputer_d5next) valid the data size before reading the sensor data

From: Edward Adam Davis

Date: Sat Aug 22 2026 - 05:15:14 EST


The user-forged sensor data is only 65 bytes long; however, aqc_raw_event()
fails to handle cases where the sensor data length is too small when reading
the data, resulting in [1] during the read process.

Add a data size check, if the size is less than that required for the
specific data item to be read, abort the sensor data read operation.
