Subject: [PATCH] HID: pantherlord: validate output report details
commit 412f30105ec6735224535791eed5cdc02888ecb4 upstream.
A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
pantherlord HID driver to write beyond the output report allocation
during initialization, causing a heap overflow:
[ 310.939483] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0e8f, idProduct=0003
...
[ 315.980774] BUG kmalloc-192 (Tainted: G W ): Redzone overwritten
CVE-2013-2892
