Subject: [PATCH 2/3] rt2x00: Restrict firmware file lengths
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2009 17:03:24 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200901231703.24523.IvDoorn@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200901231703.06609.IvDoorn@gmail.com>
Add extra security to the drivers for firmware loading,
check the firmware file length before uploading it to
the hardware. Incorrect lengths might indicate a firmware
upgrade (which is not yet supported by the driver) or
otherwise incorrect firmware.
