[PATCH 08/13] cx24116: fix a buffer overflow when checking userspace params

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

 



The maximum size for a DiSEqC command is 6, according to the
userspace API. However, the code allows to write up much more values:
	drivers/media/dvb-frontends/cx24116.c:983 cx24116_send_diseqc_msg() error: buffer overflow 'd->msg' 6 <= 23
