Subject: [PATCH v2 4/8] modpost: fix stack out-of-bounds read for unterminated PNP ids
Date: Thu,  8 Oct 2026 11:40:31 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008164035.3668885-5-lzsx618@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008164035.3668885-1-lzsx618@gmail.com>

do_pnp_device_entry() and do_pnp_card_entry() copy the PNP id into a
local acpi_id[PNP_ID_LEN] buffer to upper-case it, and then print it with
"%s". A PNP id that uses all PNP_ID_LEN characters, e.g. "PNP0C0F1", is
accepted by the compiler without a terminating NUL (the kernel is built
with -Wno-unterminated-string-initialization), so the local copy is not
NUL-terminated and printing it reads past the end of the stack buffer:

  AddressSanitizer: stack-buffer-overflow ... in printf_common
    ... do_pnp_device_entry scripts/mod/file2alias.c

Limit the printed length to the size of the id buffers.

Found by fuzzing modpost with ASan/UBSan.
