[PATCH] mwifiex: debugfs: Fix (sometimes) off-by-1 SSID print

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

 



Similar to commit fcd2042e8d36 ("mwifiex: printk() overflow with 32-byte
SSIDs"), we failed to account for the existence of 32-char SSIDs in our
debugfs code. Unlike in that case though, we zeroed out the containing
struct first, and I'm pretty sure we're guaranteed to have some padding
after the 'ssid.ssid' and 'ssid.ssid_len' fields (the struct is 33 bytes
long).

So, this is the difference between:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef "
  ...

and the correct output:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
  ...

Marking the 'Fixes' tag just for completeness, but AIUI, this isn't a security
vulnerability (besides, it's debugfs), so it might not really warrant -stable.
