This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled zram: off by one in read_block_state() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: zram-off-by-one-in-read_block_state.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit ea47306901ac58edecb8031ae6f2076f6986c035 Author: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 5 13:45:12 2021 -0700 zram: off by one in read_block_state() [ Upstream commit a88e03cf3d190cf46bc4063a9b7efe87590de5f4 ] snprintf() returns the number of bytes it would have printed if there were space. But it does not count the NUL terminator. So that means that if "count == copied" then this has already overflowed by one character. This bug likely isn't super harmful in real life.
