*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

The camera post processing engine (CPP) and video processing engine
(VPE) provide an ioctl system call interface to user space clients for
communication. When processing arguments passed to the
VIDIOC_MSM_CPP_DEQUEUE_STREAM_BUFF_INFO or
VIDIOC_MSM_VPE_DEQUEUE_STREAM_BUFF_INFO ioctl subdev handlers, a user
space supplied length value is used to copy memory to a local stack
buffer without proper bounds checking. An application with access to the
respective device nodes can use this flaw to, e.g., elevate privileges.

Break-Fix: - c9c81836ee44db9974007d34cf2aaeb1a51a8d45
Break-Fix: - 28385b9c3054c91dca1aa194ffa750550c50f3ce
