[PATCH 3.12 002/144] dell-wmi: Fix access out of memory

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

 



From: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit a666b6ffbc9b6705a3ced704f52c3fe9ea8bf959 upstream.

Without this patch, dell-wmi is trying to access elements of dynamically
allocated array without checking the array size. This can lead to memory
corruption or a kernel panic. This patch adds the missing checks for
array size.
