Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
accel/ethosu: fix arithmetic issues in dma_length()<br />
<br />
dma_length() derives DMA region usage from command stream values and<br />
updates region_size[]:<br />
<br />
len = ((len + stride[0]) * size0 + stride[1]) * size1<br />
region_size[region] = max(..., len + dma->offset)<br />
<br />
Several arithmetic issues can corrupt the derived region size:<br />
<br />
- signed stride values may underflow when added to len<br />
- intermediate multiplications may overflow<br />
- len + dma->offset may overflow during region_size updates<br />
- dma_length() error returns were not validated by the caller<br />
<br />
region_size[] is later used by ethosu_job.c to validate command stream<br />
accesses against GEM buffer sizes. Arithmetic wraparound can therefore<br />
under-report region usage and bypass the bounds validation.<br />
<br />
Fix by validating signed additions, using overflow helpers for<br />
multiplications and offset updates, and propagating dma_length()<br />
failures to the caller.
