Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ALSA: usbusx2y: fix in04_last array size causing slab OOB read
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 09:51:54 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904095154.3905899-1-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>
The in04_last array in struct usx2ydev is declared as char[24], but
in04_buf (the source for memcpy) is allocated with kmalloc(21). In
i_usx2y_in04_int(), when ctl_snapshot_last == -2 (initialization path):
memcpy(usx2y->in04_last, usx2y->in04_buf, sizeof(usx2y->in04_last));
This copies 24 bytes from a 21-byte slab allocation, reading 3 bytes
past the end of the kmalloc-32 object.
The comparison loop already uses the correct bound of 21:
for (i = 0; i < 21; i++) {
Fix by reducing the in04_last array to 21 bytes, matching the actual
USB interrupt transfer size and the in04_buf allocation.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
