[PATCH 8/9] brcmfmac: fix out of bound access on clearing wowl wake indicator

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

 



From: Hante Meuleman <hante.meuleman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Clearing the wowl wakeindicator happens with a rather odd
construction where the string "clear" is used to set the iovar
wowl_wakeind. This was implemented incorrectly as it caused an
out of bound access. Use an intermediate variable of correct
length and copy string in that. Problem was found using coverity.
