[patch] mtd: sm_ftl: heap corruption in sm_create_sysfs_attributes()

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

 



We always put a NUL terminator one space past the end of the "vendor"
buffer.  Also I think the strnlen() limiter is off by one so I have made
it smaller.
