This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled iio: adis_buffer: Fix out-of-bounds memory access to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt25. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From b9af25917d500970b7fa30565feffb3aed55dbbd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2015 14:55:56 +0100 Subject: iio: adis_buffer: Fix out-of-bounds memory access commit d590faf9e8f8509a0a0aa79c38e87fcc6b913248 upstream. The SPI tx and rx buffers are both supposed to be scan_bytes amount of bytes large and a common allocation is used to allocate both buffers. This puts the beginning of the tx buffer scan_bytes bytes after the rx buffer. The initialization of the tx buffer pointer is done adding scan_bytes to the beginning of the rx buffer, but since the rx buffer is of type __be16 this will actually add two times as much and the tx buffer ends up pointing after the allocated buffer. Fix this by using scan_count, which is scan_bytes / 2, instead of scan_bytes when initializing the tx buffer pointer.
