Subject: [PATCH] bna: integer overflow bug in debugfs
Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2017 20:52:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170317205234.GA2888@mwanda> (raw)
We could allocate less memory than intended because we do:
bnad->regdata = kzalloc(len << 2, GFP_KERNEL);
The shift can overflow leading to a crash. This is debugfs code so the
impact is very small.
Fixes: 7afc5dbde091 ("bna: Add debugfs interface.")
