Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: iwlwifi: pcie: Fix integer overflow in iwl_write_to_user_buf<br />
<br />
An integer overflow occurs in the iwl_write_to_user_buf() function,<br />
which is called by the iwl_dbgfs_monitor_data_read() function.<br />
<br />
static bool iwl_write_to_user_buf(char __user *user_buf, ssize_t count,<br />
void *buf, ssize_t *size,<br />
ssize_t *bytes_copied)<br />
{<br />
int buf_size_left = count - *bytes_copied;<br />
<br />
buf_size_left = buf_size_left - (buf_size_left % sizeof(u32));<br />
if (*size > buf_size_left)<br />
*size = buf_size_left;<br />
<br />
If the user passes a SIZE_MAX value to the "ssize_t count" parameter,<br />
the ssize_t count parameter is assigned to "int buf_size_left".<br />
Then compare "*size" with "buf_size_left" . Here, "buf_size_left" is a<br />
negative number, so "*size" is assigned "buf_size_left" and goes into<br />
the third argument of the copy_to_user function, causing a heap overflow.<br />
<br />
This is not a security vulnerability because iwl_dbgfs_monitor_data_read()<br />
is a debugfs operation with 0400 privileges.
