Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: pcl726: Prevent invalid irq number
The reproducer passed in an irq number(0x80008000) that was too large, which triggered the oob.
Added an interrupt number check to prevent users from passing in an irq number that was too large.
If it->options[1] is 31, then 1 << it->options[1] is still invalid
because it shifts a 1-bit into the sign bit (which is UB in C).
Possible solutions include reducing the upper bound on the
it->options[1] value to 30 or lower, or using 1U << it->options[1].
The old code would just not attempt to request the IRQ if the
options[1] value were invalid. And it would still configure the
device without interrupts even if the call to request_irq returned an
error. So it would be better to combine this test with the test below.
