[PATCH] crash: fix a segment fault

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There could be something wrong in the symbol name buffer for
a kernel module. That could lead to reading from outside of
"strbuf" in crash util code.

Fix:
Theck the index VS strbuf size and skip that symbol in case of
out of band.
