From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Bar Or Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2025 19:17:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] commands/read: Fix an integer overflow when supplying more than 2^31 characters The grub_getline() function currently has a signed integer variable "i" that can be overflown when user supplies more than 2^31 characters. It results in a memory corruption of the allocated line buffer as well as supplying large negative values to grub_realloc().
