Subject: [PATCH] mwifiex: pcie: tighten a check in mwifiex_pcie_process_event_ready()
Date: Thu, 05 Apr 2018 11:17:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180405111719.GB4218@mwanda> (raw)

If "evt_len" is 1 then we try to memcpy() negative 3 bytes and it would
cause memory corruption.

Fixes: d930faee141b ("mwifiex: add support for Marvell pcie8766 chipset")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
