The length of the I2C read into it is taken verbatim from\nthe device:\n\n\tpacket_size = mms114_read_reg(data, MMS114_PACKET_SIZE);\n\tif (packet_size <= 0)\n\t\tgoto out;\n\t...\n\terror = __mms114_read_reg(data, MMS114_INFORMATION, packet_size,\n\t\t\t(u8 *)touch);\n\npacket_size is a single device register byte (0x0F) and the only check\nis the lower bound packet_size <= 0; it is never bounded against the\nsize of touch[]. A malfunctioning, malicious or counterfeit controller\n(or an attacker tampering with the I2C bus) can report a packet_size of\nup to 255, so __mms114_read_reg() writes up to 175 bytes past the end of\ntouch[] on the IRQ-thread stack: a stack out-of-bounds write that can\noverwrite the stack canary, saved registers and the return address.\n\nA well-formed device never reports more than the buffer holds, so reject\nan oversized packet and drop the report, consistent with the handler's\nother error paths, rather than reading past the buffer.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-787"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/040843281eebfa110d08fd7fb083fe6cb55cea14","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/39b12daf1adb80f9595fdfe584961deb80860cbb","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5d2ea15ba03bf17ed143ff1a0995a4206edc3fb6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/66725039f7090afe14c31bd259e2059a68f04023","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8301c335305344d4da4ab9442b6a399dacfe5b8d"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-24T16:53:27.712498749+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-64270","score":0.00169,"percentile":0.06192,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
