[PATCH 2/2] staging: gdm724x: check for overflow in gdm_lte_netif_rx()

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

 



This code assumes that "len" is at least 62 bytes, but we need a check
to prevent a read overflow.

There is a different place that does:

	ip_version = buf[0] >> 4;

Which assumes that "len" is one.  I think that should be checked in the
caller...  I didn't add a check here because I think it's the wrong
place but then I didn't add a check in the caller because I wasn't able
to test it.  I'm not really that worried about reading one element
beyond the end of the buffer.  If we get extremely unlucky it could
result in a crash...  Hopefully we will remember to look at this again
before moving this code out of staging.
