Moreover, since `read_pos` is\nlocated immediately after `read_buf`, the attacker can overwrite\n`read_pos` itself to arbitrarily control the index.\n\nThis manipulated `read_pos` is subsequently used in\n`ims_pcu_handle_response()` to copy data into `cmd_buf`, leading to a\nheap buffer overflow.\n\nSpecifically, an attacker can overwrite the `cmd_done.wait.head` located\nat offset 136 relative to `cmd_buf` in the `ims_pcu_handle_response()`.\nConsequently, when the driver calls `complete(&pcu->cmd_done)`, it\ntriggers a control flow hijack by using the manipulated pointer.\n\nFix this by adding a bounds check for `read_pos` before writing to\n`read_buf`. If the packet is too long, discard it, log a warning,\nand reset the parser state.\n\n[dtor: factor out resetting packet state, reset checksum as well]"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c"],"versions":[{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"06cfff93fd40441292567b999091beab11c74504","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"992a7173364dcf63e30012af43da3c2f279839f9","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"3a801bc75ba1d121d0ed60e7234f93ba5651d87d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"40bbbf2e91fd60715525bf0405c67876af817edf","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"ca9f8c09845fb8c51b6d447f6428eecd1b8b0a49","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"d03a740e087de7dcb2a26dc1123377bd3d1d84ca","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"628329d52474323938a03826941e166bc7c8eff4","lessThan":"875115b82c295277b81b6dfee7debc725f44e854","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/input/misc/ims-pcu.c"],"versions":[{"version":"3.10","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"3.10","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.265","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.216","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.183","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.148","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.101","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.42","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.265"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.216"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.183"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.148"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.101"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.42"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.10","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/06cfff93fd40441292567b999091beab11c74504"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/992a7173364dcf63e30012af43da3c2f279839f9"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3a801bc75ba1d121d0ed60e7234f93ba5651d87d"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/40bbbf2e91fd60715525bf0405c67876af817edf"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ca9f8c09845fb8c51b6d447f6428eecd1b8b0a49"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d03a740e087de7dcb2a26dc1123377bd3d1d84ca"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/875115b82c295277b81b6dfee7debc725f44e854"}],"title":"Input: ims-pcu - fix heap-buffer-overflow in ims_pcu_process_data()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
