Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
Input: goodix - clamp the device-reported contact count<br />
<br />
goodix_ts_read_input_report() copies the number of touch points reported<br />
by the device into an on-stack buffer<br />
<br />
u8 point_data[2 + GOODIX_MAX_CONTACT_SIZE * GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS];<br />
<br />
which is sized for at most GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS (10) contacts. The only<br />
runtime check bounds the per-interrupt count against ts->max_touch_num,<br />
but that value is taken verbatim from a 4-bit field of the device<br />
configuration block and is never clamped:<br />
<br />
ts->max_touch_num = ts->config[MAX_CONTACTS_LOC] & 0x0f;<br />
<br />
The nibble can be 0..15, so a malfunctioning, malicious or counterfeit<br />
controller (or an attacker tampering with the I2C bus) can advertise up<br />
to 15 contacts. goodix_ts_read_input_report() then accepts a touch_num<br />
of up to 15 and the second goodix_i2c_read() writes<br />
ts->contact_size * (touch_num - 1) bytes past the one-contact header into<br />
point_data - up to 30 bytes (45 with the 9-byte report format) beyond the<br />
92-byte buffer: a stack out-of-bounds write.<br />
<br />
Clamp max_touch_num to GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS, the number of contacts<br />
point_data[] is sized for, when reading it from the configuration.
