3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 47f531e8ba3bc3901a0c493f4252826c41dea1a1 upstream.
The only thing that efivarfs does to enforce a valid filename is
ensure that the name isn't too short. We need to strongly sanitise any
filenames, not least because variable creation is delayed until
efivarfs_file_write(), which means we can't rely on the firmware to
inform us of an invalid name, because if the file is never written to
we'll never know it's invalid.
Perform a couple of steps before agreeing to create a new file,
* hex_to_bin() returns a value indicating whether or not it was able
to convert its arguments to a binary representation - we should
check it.
* Ensure that the GUID portion of the filename is the correct length
and format.
* The variable name portion of the filename needs to be at least one
character in size.
