Subject: patch "USB: devio: Don't corrupt user memory" added to usb-linus
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2017 10:57:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <150632985723875@kroah.com> (raw)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: devio: Don't corrupt user memory
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: USB: devio: Don't corrupt user memory
The user buffer has "uurb->buffer_length" bytes. If the kernel has more
information than that, we should truncate it instead of writing past
the end of the user's buffer. I added a WARN_ONCE() to help the user
debug the issue.
