"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\npower: supply: cros_usbpd-charger: bound the EC-reported port count\n\ncros_usbpd_charger_probe() reads two port counts from the EC and uses\none of them, num_charger_ports, as the loop bound when populating a\nfixed-size array:\n\n\tstruct port_data *ports[EC_USB_PD_MAX_PORTS];\t/* 8 entries */\n\t...\n\tfor (i = 0; i < charger->num_charger_ports; i++)\n\t\tcharger->ports[charger->num_registered_psy++] = port;\n\nBoth num_usbpd_ports (from EC_CMD_USB_PD_PORTS) and num_charger_ports\n(from EC_CMD_CHARGE_PORT_COUNT) are u8 values reported by the EC. The\nonly validation is a sanity check that compares the two EC-reported\nvalues against each other:\n\n\tif (num_charger_ports < num_usbpd_ports ||\n\t num_charger_ports > num_usbpd_ports + 1)\n\t\treturn -EPROTO;\n\nIt never checks either count against EC_USB_PD_MAX_PORTS, the size of\nthe ports[] array. A malfunctioning, malicious or compromised EC that\nreports num_usbpd_ports == num_charger_ports == N for any N > 8 (for\nexample both 255) passes this check, and the loop then writes N pointers\ninto the 8-entry ports[] array embedded in the devm_kzalloc()'d\ncharger_data, overflowing it by up to 255 - 8 = 247 entries (~1976\nbytes): a slab out-of-bounds write.\n\nReject a port count larger than the ports[] array can hold."

"value": "AV:L - The overflow is in cros_usbpd_charger_probe(), reached when the Chrome OS EC MFD core instantiates the charger over LPC/eSPI/I2C/SPI and the driver reads EC_CMD_USB_PD_PORTS and EC_CMD_CHARGE_PORT_COUNT; USB-C PD is handled by the EC and there is no network or USB-packet path into this probe.\nAC:L - A malicious or compromised EC fully controls the two u8 port counts; reporting equal values N>8 (for example both 255) passes the mutual sanity check and deterministically writes N pointers past the 8-entry ports[] array with no race or attacker-uncontrollable layout.\nPR:N - The vulnerable probe runs automatically at boot when the CrOS EC advertises USB-PD; no Linux account, capability, or user-namespace privilege is required because the attacker is the EC supplying host-command responses, with no authentication on this path.\nUI:N - Driver enumeration and the overflowing registration loop execute during normal kernel boot or module load on Chromebooks, Framework laptops, and other CrOS-EC systems; no victim action such as plugging a peripheral or opening a device node is required.\nS:U - The slab out-of-bounds write corrupts kernel heap belonging to the same OS security authority as the charger driver; this is ordinary kernel memory corruption, not a VM escape or IOMMU/DMA boundary bypass.\nC:H - The loop writes up to 247 kernel pointers (~1976 bytes) past the kmalloc'd charger_data into adjacent slab objects; that heap corruption can be leveraged for kernel-memory disclosure.\nI:H - This is a slab out-of-bounds write of port_data pointers that smashes charger_data.notifier (including notifier_call) and neighboring heap objects, which is exploitable for control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - Overflowing the 8-entry ports[] array by hundreds of pointer writes corrupts SLUB metadata and adjacent objects and can oops or panic the kernel during probe."
