Subject: [PATCH] arch: ia64: hp: sim: sprintf() memory overflow, need really use the default value just as it has already said.
Date: Thu, 30 May 2013 10:35:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51A6BAF6.4010901@asianux.com> (raw)


When "strlen(s) > MAX_ROOT_LEN", it has already said to use the default
value, but in fact, it still use the input value.

If happens, next sprintf() for 'fname' in simscsi_queuecommand_lck()
may be memory overflow.
