[PATCH] zl10353 and qt1010: fix stack corruption bug

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

 



This patch fixes stack corruption bug present in dump_regs function of zl10353 and qt1010 drivers:
the buffer buf is one byte smaller than required - there is 4 chars
for address prefix, 16*3 chars for dump of 16 eeprom bytes per line
and 1 byte for zero ending the string required, i.e. 53 bytes, but
only 52 were provided.
The one byte missing in stack based buffer buf can cause stack corruption possibly leading to kernel oops, as discovered originally with af9015 driver.

Antti, thanks for pointing out that the same problem was also in zl10353.c and qt1010.c. Include your Sign-off-by, please.

Best regards,
