Subject: [PATCH 3.4 03/39] libertas: potential oops in debugfs
Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2013 16:56:27 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131127005619.287770936@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20131127005619.011763867@linuxfoundation.org>
3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
commit a497e47d4aec37aaf8f13509f3ef3d1f6a717d88 upstream.
If we do a zero size allocation then it will oops. Also we can't be
sure the user passes us a NUL terminated string so I've added a
terminator.
This code can only be triggered by root.
