X-Git-Tag: v7.0-rc3~26^2~10
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2bad24c17742fc88973d6aea526ce1353f5334a3;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

HID: asus: avoid memory leak in asus_report_fixup()

The asus_report_fixup() function was returning a newly allocated
kmemdup()-allocated buffer, but never freeing it.  Switch to
devm_kzalloc() to ensure the memory is managed and freed automatically
when the device is removed.

The caller of report_fixup() does not take ownership of the returned
pointer, but it is permitted to return a pointer whose lifetime is at
least that of the input buffer.

Also fix a harmless out-of-bounds read by copying only the original
descriptor size.
