This sentence is inaccurate, it was any byte between 0 and ' '.

This format does not conform to our XML schema. The 'mac' attribute is
defined as:

  <define name="uniMacAddr">
    <data type="string">
      <param name="pattern">[a-fA-F0-9][02468aAcCeE](:[a-fA-F0-9]{2}){5}</param>
    </data>
  </define>

Thus 'space' or any other character is _not_ allowed in int including
the word 'injected'.

What are you actually trying to achieve? This is not clear from the
description in this bug.

Please describe also the end goal ...

... rather than just an error you are seeing, since this doesn't seem to
be a plain bugfix.

This helper is used in many places, outside of the network driver, so
this will need careful assesment whether any other code depends on the
old behaviour.

We prefer to use the character literal version of the nul byte ('\0').
