If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 1d04e383af2fa259bc3cfa1ae29b18b9a186144e Author: Simon Horman <horms@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 1 19:35:37 2024 +0100 tipc: guard against string buffer overrun [ Upstream commit 6555a2a9212be6983d2319d65276484f7c5f431a ] Smatch reports that copying media_name and if_name to name_parts may overwrite the destination. .../bearer.c:166 bearer_name_validate() error: strcpy() 'media_name' too large for 'name_parts->media_name' (32 vs 16) .../bearer.c:167 bearer_name_validate() error: strcpy() 'if_name' too large for 'name_parts->if_name' (1010102 vs 16) This does seem to be the case so guard against this possibility by using strscpy() and failing if truncation occurs. Introduced by commit b97bf3fd8f6a ("[TIPC] Initial merge") Compile tested only.
