[PATCH 4.19 004/422] ax88172a: fix information leak on short answers

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

 



From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a9a51bd727d141a67b589f375fe69d0e54c4fe22 ]

If a malicious device gives a short MAC it can elicit up to
5 bytes of leaked memory out of the driver. We need to check for
ETH_ALEN instead.
