commit f8f84af5da9ee04ef1d271528656dac42a090d00 upstream.
Even though we validate user-provided inputs we then traverse past
validated data when applying the new map. The issue was originally
discovered by Murray McAllister with this simple POC (if the following
is executed by an unprivileged user it will instantly panic the system):
int main(void) {
int fd, ret;
unsigned int buffer[10000];
fd = open("/dev/input/js0", O_RDONLY);
if (fd == -1)
printf("Error opening file\n");
ret = ioctl(fd, JSIOCSBTNMAP & ~IOCSIZE_MASK, &buffer);
printf("%d\n", ret);
}
The solution is to traverse internal buffer which is guaranteed to only
contain valid date when constructing the map.
Fixes: 182d679b2298 ("Input: joydev - prevent potential read overflow in ioctl")
Fixes: 999b874f4aa3 ("Input: joydev - validate axis/button maps before clobbering current ones")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
