firewire: cdev: check write quadlet request length to avoid buffer overflow
Check that the data length of a write quadlet request actually is large enough for a quadlet. Otherwise, fw_fill_request could access the four bytes after the end of the outbound_transaction_event structure. Signed-off-by: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@ladisch.de> Modification of Clemens' change: Consolidate the check into init_request() which is used by the affected ioctl_send_request() and ioctl_send_broadcast_request() and the unaffected ioctl_send_stream_packet(), to save a few lines of code. Note, since struct outbound_transaction_event *e is slab-allocated, such an out-of-bounds access won't hit unallocated memory but may result in a (virtually impossible to exploit) information disclosure. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
