[PATCH] konicawc.c: possible buffer overflow while use strncat.

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

 



	In driver ./drivers/media/video/usbvideo/konicawc.c in line 227:
227         usb_make_path(dev, cam->input_physname, sizeof(cam-
>input_physname));
After this line we use strncat:
228         strncat(cam->input_physname, "/input0", sizeof(cam-
>input_physname));
 where sizeof(cam->input_physname) returns length of cam->input_phisname 
without length for null-symbol. But this parameter must be -  "maximum numbers 
of bytes to copy", i.e.: sizeof(cam->input_physname)-strlen(cam-
>input_physname)-1.
	In this case, after call to usb_make_path the similar drivers use strlcat. 
Like in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c:
1152         usb_make_path(dev, hid->phys, sizeof(hid->phys));
1153         strlcat(hid->phys, "/input", sizeof(hid->phys));

Found by Linux Driver Verification Project.

Use strlcat instead of strncat.
