[ 19/25] USB: whiteheat: Added bounds checking for bulk command response

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sat Dec 06 2014 - 13:01:49 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Forshaw <forshaw@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit c5fd4126151855330280ea9382684980afcfdd03 upstream

This patch fixes a potential security issue in the whiteheat USB driver
which might allow a local attacker to cause kernel memory corrpution. This
is due to an unchecked memcpy into a fixed size buffer (of 64 bytes). On
EHCI and XHCI busses it's possible to craft responses greater than 64
bytes leading a buffer overflow.
