CVE-2024-26926

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

binder: check offset alignment in bindergetobject()

Commit 6d98eb95b450 ("binder: avoid potential data leakage when copying txn") introduced changes to how binder objects are copied. In doing so, it unintentionally removed an offset alignment check done through calls to binderalloccopyfrombuffer() -> check_buffer().

These calls were replaced in bindergetobject() with copyfromuser(), so now an explicit offset alignment check is needed here. This avoids later complications when unwinding the objects gets harder.

It is worth noting this check existed prior to commit 7a67a39320df ("binder: add function to copy binder object from buffer"), likely removed due to redundancy at the time.
