From 4423997d1e2f479f98b8f0c7ad733607f361ed76 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Quentin Casasnovas Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 13:00:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/microcode/intel: Guard against stack overflow in the loader mc_saved_tmp is a static array allocated on the stack, we need to make sure mc_saved_count stays within its bounds, otherwise we're overflowing the stack in _save_mc(). A specially crafted microcode header could lead to a kernel crash or potentially kernel execution. Signed-off-by: Quentin Casasnovas Cc: "H.
