Subject: [PATCH v2] [USB][serial/garmin_gps] Fix signed integer underflow and OOB read on packet length
Date: Sat, 19 Sep 2026 08:08:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260919080849.3005763-1-benquike@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026091908-imprint-rejoicing-6933@gregkh>

getDataLength() returns a signed int from __le32_to_cpup((__le32
*)(garmin_data_p + 8)). When bit 31 is set (e.g. 0x80000004), len is
negative (-2147483644), bypassing the upper bound check (GSP_INITIAL_OFFSET
+ len > GSP_MAX_BUFSIZ) in gsp_send() and triggering a KASAN slab-out-of-
bounds read in garmin_write_bulk() when GARMIN_PKTHDR_LENGTH + len wraps
around to 16.

Kernel stack trace:

Note that garmin_write_bulk() and garmin_write_bulk_callback() are
triggered from local userspace calling write(fd, ...) on /dev/ttyUSB0
(even with a normal USB device attached) by writing a 12-byte packet
with a negative 32-bit length field (e.g. 0x80ffffff) at byte offset 4.
