[PATCH] media: dvb-frontends: dib7090: fix null-ptr-deref in dib7090_tuner_xfer()

From: Alex Guo
Date: Sat Jun 07 2025 - 13:37:49 EST


In dib7090_tuner_xfer, msg is controlled by user. When msg[0].buf is null
and msg[0].len is zero, former checks on msg[0].buf would be passed. If
accessing msg[0].buf[0] without sanity check, null pointer deref would
happen. We add check on msg[0].len to prevent crash. Similar issue occurs
when access msg[1].buf[0] and msg[1].buf[1].

Similar commit: commit 0ed554fd769a ("media: dvb-usb: az6027: fix null-ptr-deref in az6027_i2c_xfer()")
