commit 5ebdffd25098898aff1249ae2f7dbfddd76d8f8f upstream.
In case a report is greater than HID_MAX_BUFFER_SIZE, it is truncated,
but the report-number byte is not correctly handled. This results in a
off-by-one in the following memset, causing a kernel Oops and ensuing
system crash.
Note: With commit 8ec321e96e05 ("HID: Fix slab-out-of-bounds read in
hid_field_extract") I no longer hit the kernel Oops as we instead fail
"controlled" at probe if there is a report too long in the HID
report-descriptor. hid_report_raw_event() is an exported symbol, so
presumabely we cannot always rely on this being the case.
Fixes: 966922f26c7f ("HID: fix a crash in hid_report_raw_event()
function.")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
