Subject: [024/165] TPM: ReadPubEK output struct fix
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:14:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100730171501.832934979@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100730171550.GA1299@kroah.com

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Rajiv Andrade <srajiv@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 02a077c52ef7631275a79862ffd9f3dbe9d38bc2 upstream.

This patch adds a missing element of the ReadPubEK command output,
that prevents future overflow of this buffer when copying the
TPM output result into it.

Prevents a kernel panic in case the user tries to read the
pubek from sysfs.
