can: ucan: fix out of bound read in strscpy() source
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: ucan: fix out of bound read in strscpy() source
Commit 7fdaf8966aae ("can: ucan: use strscpy() to instead of strncpy()")
unintentionally introduced a one byte out of bound read on strscpy()'s
source argument (which is kind of ironic knowing that strscpy() is meant
to be a more secure alternative :)).
Let's consider below buffers:
dest[len + 1]; /* will be NUL terminated */
src[len]; /* may not be NUL terminated */
When doing:
strncpy(dest, src, len);
dest[len] = '\0';
strncpy() will read up to len bytes from src.
On the other hand:
strscpy(dest, src, len + 1);
will read up to len + 1 bytes from src, that is to say, an out of bound
read of one byte will occur on src if it is not NUL terminated. Note
that the src[len] byte is never copied, but strscpy() still needs to
read it to check whether a truncation occurred or not.
This exact pattern happened in ucan.
The root cause is that the source is not NUL terminated. Instead of
doing a copy in a local buffer, directly NUL terminate it as soon as
usb_control_msg() returns. With this, the local firmware_str[] variable
can be removed.
On top of this do a couple refactors:
- ucan_ctl_payload->raw is only used for the firmware string, so
rename it to ucan_ctl_payload->fw_str and change its type from u8 to
char.
- ucan_device_request_in() is only used to retrieve the firmware
string, so rename it to ucan_get_fw_str() and refactor it to make it
directly handle all the string termination logic.Daten sind bereitgestellt durch National Vulnerability Database (NVD)

CWE-125 Out-of-bounds Read
The product reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
