  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nPCI/sysfs: Fix out-of-bounds read in pci_write_legacy_io()\n\npci_write_legacy_io() loads 4 bytes from the kernfs write buffer\nregardless of how many bytes userspace wrote:\n\n  if (count != 1 \u0026\u0026 count != 2 \u0026\u0026 count != 4)\n          return -EINVAL;\n\n  return pci_legacy_write(bus, off, *(u32 *)buf, count);\n\nkernfs_fop_write_iter() allocates the buffer with kmalloc(len + 1),\nso a 1-byte write to the legacy_io sysfs file allocates 2 bytes and\nthe unconditional u32 load reads up to 2 bytes past the end of the\nallocation, which KASAN reports as a slab-out-of-bounds read.\nSimilarly, a 2-byte write overreads by 1 byte.\n\nThus, read only the number of bytes requested using get_unaligned_le16()\nand get_unaligned_le32() for the 2 and 4 byte cases, interpreting the\nbuffer as little-endian to match the byte ordering of PCI I/O port\nspace.\n\nThe PowerPC implementation previously compensated for the generic\ncode's native-endian 32-bit load by shifting the value into place\nfor the 1 and 2 byte cases.  The shifts were only correct on\nbig-endian kernels.\n\nOn little-endian PowerPC (POWER8 and later), they extracted the wrong\nbytes, so a 1-byte write wrote an out-of-bounds byte instead of the\nrequested value.  On big-endian, the native load also caused out_le16()\nand out_le32() to reverse the user's bytes on the wire for 2 and 4 byte\nwrites.  The little-endian helpers resolve both issues, so the shifts\nare removed.\n\nNo changes are needed for the Alpha platform.\n\nThe legacy_io file is root-only and exists only on Alpha and PowerPC,\nthe two architectures that define HAVE_PCI_LEGACY.",
