Subject: [PATCH] pwm: lp3943: validate DT output indices in lp3943_pwm_parse_dt()
Date: 6 Sep 2026 16:50:10 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6a9d4c6b.79b5ea6e.147aa1.5883@mx.google.com> (raw)

The ti,pwm0/ti,pwm1 devicetree properties are raw u32 arrays naming
which of the 16 physical LP3943 outputs (0-15, per the documented
binding and the 16-entry enum lp3943_pwm_output) each PWM channel
drives. lp3943_pwm_parse_dt() reads these values straight from the
devicetree with of_property_read_u32_array() and stores them in
pwm_map->output[] without checking they are actually in range.

Both consumers of pwm_map->output[] then use an out-of-range value
directly as an index/bit-offset with no bounds check of their own:

 - lp3943_pwm_request_map() does
       test_and_set_bit(offset, &lp3943->pin_used)
   with offset taken straight from output[i], corrupting memory beyond
   the single 'unsigned long pin_used' field for offset >= BITS_PER_LONG.

 - lp3943_pwm_set_mode() does
       mux[index].reg / .mask / .shift
   with index taken straight from output[i], reading past the 16-entry
   lp3943_mux_cfg[] array and then issuing a regmap write built from
   whatever garbage register/mask/shift values were read out of bounds.

A devicetree (malformed board file or a loaded overlay) with an
out-of-range ti,pwm0/ti,pwm1 value is enough to reach either path;
nothing upstream of these two functions validates the value.

Add a range check in lp3943_pwm_parse_dt() right after the values are
read, rejecting the devicetree with -EINVAL before any out-of-range
value can reach pwm_map->output[]. Add the LP3943_NUM_OUTPUTS(16)
constant next to the existing enum it bounds, alongside the existing
LP3943_NUM_PWMS(2) constant.
