cpu/hotplug: Fix out-of-bounds read when setting fail state
Setting invalid value to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/hotplug/fail can control `struct cpuhp_step *sp` address, results in the following global-out-of-bounds read. Reproducer: # echo -2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/hotplug/fail KASAN report: BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in write_cpuhp_fail+0x2cd/0x2e0 Read of size 8 at addr ffffffff89734438 by task bash/1941 CPU: 0 PID: 1941 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.2.0-rc6+ #31 Call Trace: write_cpuhp_fail+0x2cd/0x2e0 dev_attr_store+0x58/0x80 sysfs_kf_write+0x13d/0x1a0 kernfs_fop_write+0x2bc/0x460 vfs_write+0x1e1/0x560 ksys_write+0x126/0x250 do_syscall_64+0xc1/0x390 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe RIP: 0033:0x7f05e4f4c970 The buggy address belongs to the variable: cpu_hotplug_lock+0x98/0xa0 Memory state around the buggy address: ffffffff89734300: fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ffffffff89734380: fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 >ffffffff89734400: 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa ^ ffffffff89734480: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ffffffff89734500: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Add a sanity check for the value written from user space.
