From: Jaejoong Kim climbbb.kim@gmail.com
commit 251552a2b0d454badc8f486e6d79100970c744b0 upstream.
The snd_usb_copy_string_desc() retrieves the usb string corresponding to the index number through the usb_string(). The problem is that the usb_string() returns the length of the string (>= 0) when successful, but it can also return a negative value about the error case or status of usb_control_msg().
If iClockSource is '0' as shown below, usb_string() will returns -EINVAL. This will result in '0' being inserted into buf[-22], and the following KASAN out-of-bound error message will be output.
AudioControl Interface Descriptor: bLength 8 bDescriptorType 36 bDescriptorSubtype 10 (CLOCK_SOURCE) bClockID 1 bmAttributes 0x07 Internal programmable Clock (synced to SOF) bmControls 0x07 Clock Frequency Control (read/write) Clock Validity Control (read-only) bAssocTerminal 0 iClockSource 0
To fix it, check usb_string()'return value and bail out.
