Best regards Dirk [1] From: Dirk Behme Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2015 10:26:16 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Input: atmel_mxt_ts - terminate the config file with '\0' The config data is loaded by the firmware interface into the kernel's memory space. This is done without trailing '\0'. I.e. while parsing the data, the end of the configuration data is just detected by comparing the actual data position with the overall size of the config data. In case the configuration data ends with '\r' or with '\r\n', the config data parsing by sscanf() still reads data, even though the end of the file is already reached. This is done over the end of the config data, i.e. random kernel data might be read, until sscanf() detects a (random) end in that memory. Prevent this by adding a trailing '\0' to the configuration data. This stops sscanf() by reading over the end of the file in memory.
