From: Krystian Kaniewski <krystianmkaniewski@gmail.com>

In ttusb_dec_send_command(), a 64-byte buffer is allocated
(COMMAND_PACKET_SIZE + 4, where COMMAND_PACKET_SIZE is 60) for sending a
command to the USB device and receiving the response via usb_bulk_msg().
After receiving the response, the fourth byte b[3] is treated as the
payload length and used directly in memcpy(cmd_result, &b[4], b[3]) without
validating it against the actual number of received bytes (actual_len), the
allocated source buffer bounds, or the capacity of the destination buffer
cmd_result.

During device probe in ttusb_dec_probe(), ttusb_dec_init_stb() calls
ttusb_dec_get_stb_state() to query the device state. If the device returns
a response with an untrusted payload length b[3] greater than
COMMAND_PACKET_SIZE (e.g. 75), memcpy() reads past the end of the source
buffer and overflows the caller's 60-byte destination buffer on the stack,
triggering a FORTIFY_SOURCE buffer overflow failure ("memcpy: detected
buffer overflow: 75 byte read of buffer size 60").

Moreover, other callers such as ttusbdecfe_dvbt_read_status() supply
destination buffers as small as 4 bytes, which can lead to a stack buffer
overflow even if the device returns fewer than 60 bytes. Additionally,
param_length is copied into &b[4] without checking whether it exceeds
COMMAND_PACKET_SIZE.

Fix this by first verifying that param_length is non-negative and does not
exceed COMMAND_PACKET_SIZE. Next, add a cmd_result_len parameter to
ttusb_dec_send_command(), fe_send_command(), and struct
ttusbdecfe_config.send_command to pass the destination buffer capacity, and
update all callers accordingly. Finally, strictly reject malformed replies
with -EIO if actual_len is less than 4 bytes, if the untrusted payload
length b[3] exceeds the remaining received bytes (actual_len - 4), or if
cmd_result is provided and b[3] exceeds cmd_result_len. This ensures that
invalid replies fail safely and memcpy() never performs an out-of-bounds
read or write.
