commit 2b09d5d364986f724f17001ccfe4126b9b43a0be upstream.

blit_x and blit_y are u32, so fbcon currently cannot support fonts
larger than 32x32.

The 32x32 case also needs shifting an unsigned int, to properly set bit
31, otherwise we get "UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in fbcon_set_font",

commit 65a01e601dbba8b7a51a2677811f70f783766682 upstream.

Prevent that users set a font size which is bigger than the physical screen.
It's unlikely this may happen (because screens are usually much larger than the
fonts and each font char is limited to 32x32 pixels), but it may happen on
smaller screens/LCD displays.

commit ffb324e6f874121f7dce5bdae5e05d02baae7269 upstream.

syzbot is reporting OOB write at vga16fb_imageblit() [1], for
resize_screen() from ioctl(VT_RESIZE) returns 0 without checking whether
requested rows/columns fit the amount of memory reserved for the graphical
screen if current mode is KD_GRAPHICS.

----------
  #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/stat.h&gt;
  #include &lt;fcntl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;sys/ioctl.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/kd.h&gt;
  #include &lt;linux/vt.h&gt;

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
        const int fd = open("/dev/char/4:1", O_RDWR);
        struct vt_sizes vt = { 0x4100, 2 };

Allow framebuffer drivers to return -EINVAL, by moving vc-&gt;vc_mode !=
KD_GRAPHICS check from resize_screen() to fbcon_resize().

<title>fbcon: Fix global-out-of-bounds read in fbcon_get_font()</title>

commit 5af08640795b2b9a940c9266c0260455377ae262 upstream.

fbcon_get_font() is reading out-of-bounds. A malicious user may resize
`vc-&gt;vc_font.height` to a large value, causing fbcon_get_font() to
read out of `fontdata`.

fbcon_get_font() handles both built-in and user-provided fonts.
Fortunately, recently we have added FONT_EXTRA_WORDS support for built-in
fonts, so fix it by adding range checks using FNTSIZE().

This patch depends on patch "fbdev, newport_con: Move FONT_EXTRA_WORDS
macros into linux/font.h", and patch "Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS
macros for built-in fonts".

[ Upstream commit ec0972adecb391a8d8650832263a4790f3bfb4df ]

syzbot is reporting OOB read at fbcon_resize() [1], for
commit 39b3cffb8cf31117 ("fbcon: prevent user font height or width change
 from causing potential out-of-bounds access") is by error using
registered_fb[con2fb_map[vc-&gt;vc_num]]-&gt;fbcon_par-&gt;p-&gt;userfont (which was
set to non-zero) instead of fb_display[vc-&gt;vc_num].userfont (which remains
zero for that display).

We could remove tricky userfont flag [2], for we can determine it by
comparing address of the font data and addresses of built-in font data.
But since that commit is failing to fix the original OOB read [3], this
patch keeps the change minimal in case we decide to revert altogether.

Since the softscroll code got removed, this argument is always zero and

commit 50145474f6ef4a9c19205b173da6264a644c7489 upstream.

This (and the VGA soft scrollback) turns out to have various nasty small
special cases that nobody really is willing to fight.  The soft
scrollback code was really useful a few decades ago when you typically
used the console interactively as the main way to interact with the
machine, but that just isn't the case any more.

So it's not worth dragging along.

<title>fbcon: prevent user font height or width change from causing potential out-of-bounds access</title>

commit 39b3cffb8cf3111738ea993e2757ab382253d86a upstream.

Add a check to fbcon_resize() to ensure that a possible change to user font
height or user font width will not allow a font data out-of-bounds access.
NOTE: must use original charcount in calculation as font charcount can
change and cannot be used to determine the font data allocated size.
