This patch (as766) sanitizes the Vendor, Product, and Revision strings contained in an INQUIRY result, by setting all non-graphic or non-ASCII characters to ' '. Since the standard disallows such characters, this will affect only non-compliant devices. The most prominent effect will be to prevent stray NUL characters from terminating one of these strings early (which can prevent a blacklist match). Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- There is a small possibility that this may cause a problem for some users. But nobody on the mailing raised any serious objections, so I'm submitting it. I know of one person it will definitely help.
