[patch 21/22] V4L/DVB (9621): Avoid writing outside shadow.bytes[]array

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 16 2008 - 19:13:01 EST


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

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

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 494264379d186bf806613d27aafb7d88d42f4212 upstream.

There were no check about the limits of shadow.bytes array. This offers
a risk of writing values outside the limits, overriding other data
areas.
