Subject: [PATCH] tpm: ibmvtpm: check the response size against the buffer size
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 09:49:46 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106014946.4128696-1-guozh23@xiaopeng.com> (raw)

The send path validates the transfer size against the size of the
RTCE buffer:

	if (count > ibmvtpm->rtce_size) {
		dev_err(ibmvtpm->dev,
			"Invalid size in send: count=%zd, rtce_size=%d\n",
			count, ibmvtpm->rtce_size);
		return -EIO;
	}

The receive path has no such check: the response length is whatever
the hypervisor reported in the completion CRQ, and it is only
compared against the size the caller asked for before being used to
copy and clear the RTCE buffer:

	len = ibmvtpm->res_len;

	if (count < len) {
		...
		return -EIO;
	}

	spin_lock(&ibmvtpm->rtce_lock);
	memcpy((void *)buf, (void *)ibmvtpm->rtce_buf, len);
	memset(ibmvtpm->rtce_buf, 0, len);

A response length larger than the RTCE buffer makes the memcpy read
past the buffer and the memset clear past it.

Reject a response that does not fit in the RTCE buffer, mirroring
the check the send path already performs.
