This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drivers/net/usb: Remove all strcpy() uses to the 5.4-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: drivers-net-usb-remove-all-strcpy-uses.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e1179dc57505fab627795a72fa2b1f062cbfa154 Author: Len Baker <len.baker@xxxxxxx> Date: Sun Aug 1 19:12:26 2021 +0200 drivers/net/usb: Remove all strcpy() uses [ Upstream commit 493c3ca6bd754d8587604496eb814f72e933075d ] strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer. This could result in linear overflows beyond the end of the buffer, leading to all kinds of misbehaviors. The safe replacement is strscpy().
