Subject: [PATCH] drm/nouveau/acr: Fix undefined behavior in nvkm_acr_hsfw_load_bl()
Date:   Tue, 25 Jan 2022 00:58:55 +0800
Message-Id: <20220124165856.57022-1-zhou1615@umn.edu>

Precedence: bulk

In nvkm_acr_hsfw_load_bl(), the return value of kmalloc() is directly
passed to memcpy(), which could lead to undefined behavior on failure
of kmalloc().

Fix this bug by using kmemdup() instead of kmalloc()+memcpy().

This bug was found by a static analyzer.

Builds with 'make allyesconfig' show no new warnings,
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.

The analysis employs differential checking to identify inconsistent 
security operations (e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths 
and confirms that the inconsistent operations are not recovered in the
current function or the callers, so they constitute bugs. 

Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false
positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed
the bug.
