[PATCH 2/2] wl12xx: Check buffer bound when processing nvs data

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

 



An nvs with malformed contents could cause the processing of the
calibration data to read beyond the end of the buffer. Prevent this
from happening by adding bound checking.
