Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: ncsi: Fix buffer overflow in fetching version id
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2025 12:33:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250610193338.1368-1-kalavakunta.hari.prasad@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Hari Kalavakunta <kalavakunta.hari.prasad@gmail.com>

In NC-SI spec v1.2 section 8.4.44.2, the firmware name doesn't
need to be null terminated while its size occupies the full size
of the field. Fix the buffer overflow issue by adding one
additional byte for null terminator.
