Hi,

Is there any chance this patch series will get reviewed soon?
The v1 series has already been reviewed a few months ago and the patches which 
were not ok were re-submitted as v2.
The v3 series is basically a rebase of v1 on latest master with the v2 changes 
included.

Kind regards,
Krzysztof

Subject: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v3 00/11] Test against invalid pointers in acpiview

Prevent the use of invalid pointers when parsing ACPI tables in the UEFI shell 
acpiview tool.

The parsing of ACPI tables is often controlled with the values read earlier 
from the same table. For example, the 'Offset' or 'Count' fields found in a 
structure are later used to parse the substructures. If such fields lie outside 
the structure's buffer length provided, then there is a possibility for a wild 
or dangling pointer.

Currently, if the ParseAcpi() function terminates early because the end of the 
input table data buffer has been reached, then the pointers which were supposed 
to be updated by this function are left untouched.
This is a security issue as the values pointed to by these pointers are later 
used for flow control.

This patch series aims to solve this security issue by explicitly initializing 
any pointers lying outside the input ACPI data buffer to NULL and testing for 
NULL whenever these pointers are dereferenced.

Notes:
    v3:
    - Rebase on latest master [Krzysztof]
