HID: amd_sfh: Validate PCI BAR size before mapping

Assigner: Linux
Reserved: 25.09.2026 Published: 18.10.2026 Updated: 18.10.2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: amd_sfh: Validate PCI BAR size before mapping

The amd_sfh driver maps PCI BAR 2 using pcim_iomap_regions() and subsequently accesses MMIO registers at offsets up to 0x10958 (e.g., AMD_P2C_MSG3 at 0x1068C). However, the driver never validates that the BAR size is large enough to cover these accesses. If the driver is bound to a device with a smaller BAR 2, this leads to an out-of-bounds memory access and a page fault during the probe function.

For example, a page fault can occur when reading from privdata->mmio + AMD_P2C_MSG3 in mp2_select_ops():

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc9000390368c PGD 100000067 P4D 100000067 PUD 1012c1067 PMD 105b64067 PTE 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI RIP: 0010:readl arch/x86/include/asm/io.h:59 [inline] RIP: 0010:mp2_select_ops drivers/hid/amd-sfh-hid/amd_sfh_pcie.c:282 [inline] RIP: 0010:amd_mp2_pci_probe+0x337/0x5f0 drivers/hid/amd-sfh-hid/amd_sfh_pcie.c:487 Call Trace: <TASK> local_pci_probe drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:332 [inline] pci_call_probe drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:394 [inline] __pci_device_probe drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:455 [inline] pci_device_probe+0x431/0xc90 drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:489

Fix this by verifying that the length of BAR 2 is at least 128KB before attempting to map it. Since the maximum accessed offset is 0x10958, and PCI BAR sizes are powers of 2, any legitimate hardware will have a BAR size of at least 128KB.
