[PATCH] Input: matrix-keymap - reject keycodes above KEY_MAX
Posted by Linmao Li 2 weeks, 2 days ago
matrix_keypad_map_key() validates the row and column of each entry before
using them to update the keymap. It does not validate the keycode before
using it as a bit number in input_dev->keybit, which only has KEY_CNT bits.
A malformed firmware or platform keymap can therefore write past the
bitmap.

Reject keycodes above KEY_MAX before updating the keymap or capability
bitmap.

Fixes: 77a53fd21870 ("Input: matrix-keypad - add function to build device keymap")
