[PATCH v8 2/2] x86/boot: Improve MBI2 structure check
Posted by Frediano Ziglio 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Tag structure should contain at least the tag header.
Entire tag structure must be contained inside MBI2 data.

Changes since v6:
- compare against total_size every time to avoid overflows.

Changes since v7:
- check for tag type being MULTIBOOT2_TAG_TYPE_END before checking
  tag size. This allows caller to not fill full tag (type field is
  before size field).
