^^^ here, so within memcpy(), but after the "easy" sanity checks.

The only place where I see ata_exec_internal_sg() calling memcpy() is
here:

/* prepare & issue qc */
qc->tf = *tf;
if (cdb)
memcpy(qc->cdb, cdb, ATAPI_CDB_LEN);

the "16" is consistent with the report:

include/linux/ata.h: ATAPI_CDB_LEN = 16,

which matches the claim about the cdb variable from KASAN. And it's a
read, so "cdb" is wrong. Do you have a longer back trace? What called
ata_exec_internal_sg()?

ata_exec_internal() is the only caller of ata_exec_internal_sg(). Nearly
all callers of ata_exec_internal() pass a NULL cdb. Those that don't
are:

atapi_eh_tur()
u8 cdb[ATAPI_CDB_LEN] = ...
atapi_eh_request_sense()
u8 cdb[ATAPI_CDB_LEN] = ...

These two are on the static and correctly sized.

eject_tray()
static const char cdb[ATAPI_CDB_LEN] = ...
zpodd_get_mech_type()
static const char cdb[] = ...

These are both in rodata, and only the first is correctly sized. I
assume the following will fix it:
