[PATCH 1/2] media: mali-c55: Check the parameters buffer address before copying

From: David Carlier

Date: Sun Sep 06 2026 - 05:27:57 EST


mali_c55_params_buf_prepare() copies the parameters buffer supplied by
userspace into the driver's scratch buffer, using the result of
vb2_plane_vaddr() as the source without checking it. The queue accepts
VB2_DMABUF, and vb2_dc_vaddr() returns NULL for an exporter that cannot
be vmapped, so the memcpy() dereferences NULL.

Reject the buffer at prepare time instead.
