Subject: [PATCH] ubi: Fix out of bounds write in volume update code
Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2016 10:53:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456048383-27344-1-git-send-email-richard@nod.at> (raw)

ubi_start_leb_change() alloctes too few bytes.
ubi_more_leb_change_data() will write up to req->upd_bytes +
ubi->min_io_size bytes.
