The only\nruntime check bounds the per-interrupt count against ts->max_touch_num,\nbut that value is taken verbatim from a 4-bit field of the device\nconfiguration block and is never clamped:\n\n\tts->max_touch_num = ts->config[MAX_CONTACTS_LOC] & 0x0f;\n\nThe nibble can be 0..15, so a malfunctioning, malicious or counterfeit\ncontroller (or an attacker tampering with the I2C bus) can advertise up\nto 15 contacts. goodix_ts_read_input_report() then accepts a touch_num\nof up to 15 and the second goodix_i2c_read() writes\nts->contact_size * (touch_num - 1) bytes past the one-contact header into\npoint_data - up to 30 bytes (45 with the 9-byte report format) beyond the\n92-byte buffer: a stack out-of-bounds write.\n\nClamp max_touch_num to GOODIX_MAX_CONTACTS, the number of contacts\npoint_data[] is sized for, when reading it from the configuration.","published":"2026-07-25T10:17:08.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-24T13:10:00.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-787"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00169,"percentile":0.06189,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.17%).
