commit d93ba918a1 upstream.
It is currently possible for a malicious or misconfigured USB device to
cause an out-of-bounds (OOB) read when submitting reports using
DOUBLE_REPORT_ID by specifying a large report length and providing a
smaller one.
Let's prevent that by comparing the specified report length with the
actual size of the data read in from userspace. If the actual data
length ends up being smaller than specified, we'll politely warn the
user and prevent any further processing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
