[PATCH v2] Fix WARNING in __ext4_ioctl

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

 



Specify the size of s_volume_name in strscpy_pad() to avoid buffer
overflow.

strscpy_pad() by default takes the size of destination string as the
size to be read from source string. However, as s_volume_name is only
declared as an array of size EXT4_LABEL_MAX, we are reading 1 byte more
than expected.

Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=2cab87506a0e7885f4b9
Fixes: 744a56389f73 ("ext4: replace deprecated strncpy with alternatives")
