If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Quentin Casasnovas commit f84598bd7c851f8b0bf8cd0d7c3be0d73c432ff4 upstream. mc_saved_tmp is a static array allocated on the stack, we need to make sure mc_saved_count stays within its bounds, otherwise we're overflowing the stack in _save_mc(). A specially crafted microcode header could lead to a kernel crash or potentially kernel execution. Signed-off-by: Quentin Casasnovas Cc: "H.
