[PATCH] tty: vt: keyboard: do not copy an extra-byte in copy_to_user

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

 



Both (statically-allocated) "user_kdgkb->kb_string" and
(dynamically-allocated) "kbs" are of length "len", so we must
not copy more than "len" bytes.
