[PATCH] usb: gadget: ether: Fix MAC address parsing

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

 



MAC addresses can be written without leading zeros. A popular
example is libc's ether_ntoa_r function which creates such
MAC addresses.

Example:
00:14:3d:0f:ff:fe can be written as 0:14:3d:f:ff:fe

Additionally, get_ether_addr potentially parsed past the end
of the user provided string. Use the opportunity and fix the
function to never parse beyond the end of the string while
allowing MAC addresses with and without leading zeros.
