| |
dfl.c utilizes memdup_user() and array_size() to copy a userspace array. array_size() will likely never trigger thanks to the preceeding check. Nevertheless, in the theoretical event that it would, it would return SIZE_MAX to memdup_user(), resulting in an attempt to allocate huge amounts of memory.
string.h from the core-api now provides memdup_array_user() which also performs an overflow check and returns an error-pointer with -EOVERFLOW to the caller. As an additional advantage it standardizes how userspace-arrays are being copied and, thus, makes it more obvious to readers that an array is being copied.
Replace memdup_user() with memdup_array_user().
