DescriptionCVE.org

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

HID: intel-thc-hid: intel-quicki2c: Fix ACPI dsd ICRS/ISUB length

The QuickI2C ACPI _DSD methods return ICRS and ISUB data with a trailing byte, making the actual length is one more byte than the structs defined.

It caused stack-out-of-bounds and kernel crash:
