CVE-2021-47649
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udmabuf: validate ubuf->pagecount Syzbot has reported GPF in sg_alloc_append_table_from_pages(). The problem was in ubuf->pages == ZERO_PTR. ubuf->pagecount is calculated from arguments passed from user-space. If user creates udmabuf with list.size == 0 then ubuf->pagecount will be also equal to zero; it causes kmalloc_array() to return ZERO_PTR. Fix it by validating ubuf->pagecount before passing it to kmalloc_array().
