[RFC PATCH 2/3] scsi: qedf: do not touch __user pointer in qedf_dbg_debug_cmd_read() directly

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

 



The qedf_dbg_debug_cmd_read() function invokes sprintf()
directly on a __user pointer, which may crash the kernel.

Avoid doing that by using a small on-stack buffer for sprintf()
and then calling simple_read_from_buffer() which does a proper
copy_to_user() call.
