      "title": "ALSA: line6: reject oversized playback packets",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nALSA: line6: reject oversized playback packets\n\nEach playback URB is handed a slice of out.buffer that is exactly\nLINE6_ISO_PACKETS * max_packet_size_out bytes, sized from the OUT\nendpoint, but the number of bytes written into that slice is never\ncompared against it.\n\nsubmit_audio_out_urb() takes the frame count from prev_fsize, which\naudio_in_callback() derived from the *IN* endpoint's received packet\nlength, and rescales it with the playback frame size; when prev_fsize is\nstill zero it synthesizes a length from the sample rate instead.  On a\ndevice declaring a large IN wMaxPacketSize and a small OUT\nwMaxPacketSize, the resulting memcpy(), or the memset() when the\nplayback stream is idle, runs past its slice and, as the reproducer\nbelow shows, beyond the allocation.\n\nusb_submit_urb() is not a backstop.  max_packet_size_out comes from\nusb_maxpacket(), which returns only the low 11 bits of wMaxPacketSize,\nwhile USB core validates a high-speed isochronous length against that\nbase scaled by usb_endpoint_maxp_mult().  A length of up to three times\nthe allocated slice is therefore accepted, and even a rejected URB is\nonly rejected after the write.\n\nReject a packet that does not fit the slice the driver allocated for it.\nClamping it instead would silently shorten the capture-derived rate\nfeedback and desynchronize the two streams.\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in submit_audio_out_urb (sound/usb/line6/playback.c:229)\n  Write of size 1024 at addr ffff888100bbd400 by task kworker/1:2/5002\n  Workqueue: events line6_startup_work\n  Call Trace:\n   __asan_memcpy (mm/kasan/shadow.c:106)\n   submit_audio_out_urb (sound/usb/line6/playback.c:229)\n   line6_submit_audio_out_all_urbs (sound/usb/line6/playback.c:291)\n   line6_stream_start (sound/usb/line6/pcm.c:194)\n   line6_pcm_acquire (sound/usb/line6/pcm.c:337)\n   line6_startup_work (sound/usb/line6/driver.c:728)\n   process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3396)\n   worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3479 kernel/workqueue.c:3560)\n   kthread (kernel/kthread.c:436)\n   ret_from_fork (arch/x86/kernel/process.c:158)\n   ret_from_fork_asm (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:245)\n\n  The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888100bbd400\n   which belongs to the cache kmalloc-256 of size 256\n  The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of\n   allocated 256-byte region [ffff888100bbd400, ffff888100bbd500)",
