This
+ if (get_user(len, (int __user *)arg))
+ return -EFAULT;
+ if (copy_to_user(*((__u8 **)(user_arg +
+ sizeof(__u32))),
+ dev->hid->rdesc, len))
is an instant trouble - you dereference userland-supplied address and
expect it to be OK; then you take the obtained value and use it as
address to shove the data into.
Now,
a) dereference is Not Safe(tm), even if you have get_user()
succeeded just before (and it might be completely unrelated to userland
data at that address).
b) copying arbitrary amount of data? Without any sanity checks on
len, when we'd just got it from userland?
c) just WTF is that thing supposed to do?
