Subject: [PATCH] media: cx231xx: fix potential sign-extension overflow on large shift
Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2018 19:01:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181006180142.28443-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
Shifting the u8 value[3] by an int can lead to sign-extension
overflow. For example, if value[3] is 0xff and the shift is 24 then it
is promoted to int and then the top bit is sign-extended so that all
upper 32 bits are set. Fix this by casting value[3] to a u32 before
the shift.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1016522 ("Unintended sign extension")
