Subject: [PATCH 3/3] usb-storage: alauda: fix out-of-bounds zone index
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 15:58:31 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901065831.43567-4-arka@arkamondal.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901065831.43567-1-arka@arkamondal.net>
MEDIA_INFO(us).lba_to_pba and .pba_to_lba are arrays of num_zones
pointers, allocated by kcalloc() in alauda_init_media().
alauda_ensure_map_for_zone() reads lba_to_pba[zone] and
pba_to_lba[zone], and when either is NULL alauda_read_map() writes a
pointer back to both. Two separate errors let zone reach num_zones, one
element past the end.
max_lba is capacity >> (blockshift + pageshift), which counts physical
blocks, but zone is lba / uzonesize and uzonesize is 125/128 of
zonesize. On a 16 MB card (alauda_card_ids id 0x73) num_zones is 1 and
uzonesize is 1000, so lba 1000 to 1023 pass the bounds check and index
element 1 of a one-element array.
alauda_read_data() also calls alauda_ensure_map_for_zone() before it
compares lba against max_lba, so any larger lba is used as an index
before the check rejects it. alauda_write_data() already checks first.
Bound lba by num_zones * uzonesize on both paths and move the read
side's call below the check. alauda_transport() reports
num_zones * uzonesize * blocksize for READ_CAPACITY, so the new bound is
exactly the range the device advertises and no block becomes
unreachable.
sd never issues an lba past the reported capacity; an SG_IO READ_10 can.
