[PATCH net-next] can: slcan: use scnprintf() as a hardening measure

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

 



The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes which *would* have
been copied if there were no space.  So, since this code does not check
the return value, there if the buffer was not large enough then there
would be a buffer overflow two lines later when it does:

	actual = sl->tty->ops->write(sl->tty, sl->xbuff, n);

Use scnprintf() instead because that returns the number of bytes which
were actually copied.
