[PATCH] iio: dac: ad3552r-hs: fix scnprintf() buffer bound in data source show
Posted by Babanpreet Singh 1 week, 1 day ago
ad3552r_hs_show_data_source_avail() formats the available data source
names into a 128-byte stack buffer, but bounds each scnprintf() with
PAGE_SIZE instead of the buffer size, so the bound does not protect
the destination at all.

This cannot overflow today - dbgfs_attr_source[] has two entries,
"normal" and "ramp-16bit", 18 bytes formatted - but the bound stops
protecting the stack the day the table grows. Use sizeof(buf) so the
bound matches the destination.

Found by smatch:

  drivers/iio/dac/ad3552r-hs.c:593 ad3552r_hs_show_data_source_avail()
  error: scnprintf() 'buf[len]' too small (128 vs 4096)

Nice, but please use sysfs_emit_at() instead. This will fix the above issue as
well while moving towards the modern and recommended API.
