Subject: [PATCH 1/7] usb: storage: ene_ub6250: fail MS init on card errors
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2026 15:40:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261027-llm-usb-storage-v1-1-d1655e94ed10@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261027-llm-usb-storage-v1-0-d1655e94ed10@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>
Inserting a Memory Stick that has no usable boot block, for example a
blank or damaged card, into an ENE UB6250 reader oopses the kernel with
a divide error on the first READ(10).
ene_ms_init() ignores the return value of ms_card_init(). When
ms_card_init() finds no boot block it returns MS_STATUS_ERROR after
ms_lib_free_allocatedarea() has cleared the card geometry and freed the
logical maps, but MS_Status keeps the MS_Ready bit the reader reported,
so ene_transport() goes on to dispatch commands to ms_scsi_irp(). The
first READ(10) from the partition scan then reaches ms_scsi_read():
logblk = (u16)(bn / info->MS_Lib.PagesPerBlock);
with PagesPerBlock == 0. With a non-zero PagesPerBlock the same path
would dereference the freed (NULL) Log2PhyMap instead.
The bug was found by code inspection and has not been reproduced.
Fix by clearing MS_Ready and returning USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_ERROR from
ene_ms_init() when ms_card_init() fails, as is already done when the
reader reports that the card is not ready.
