[PATCH 1/9] serial: arc_uart: Fix out-of-bounds access through DT alias

From: geert+renesas@glider.be (Geert Uytterhoeven)
Date: 2018-02-20 09:58:03
Also in: linux-devicetree, linux-renesas-soc, linux-serial, lkml
Subsystem: synopsys arc architecture, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Vineet Gupta, Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

The arc_uart_ports[] array is indexed using a value derived from the
"serialN" alias in DT, which may lead to an out-of-bounds access.

Fix this by adding a range check.

Note that the array size is defined by a Kconfig symbol
(CONFIG_SERIAL_ARC_NR_PORTS), so this can even be triggered using a
legitimate DTB.
