[PATCH 3.2 85/87] staging: wlags49_h2: buffer overflow settingstation name

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Mon Nov 25 2013 - 09:02:52 EST


3.2.53-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b5e2f339865fb443107e5b10603e53bbc92dc054 upstream.

We need to check the length parameter before doing the memcpy(). I've
actually changed it to strlcpy() as well so that it's NUL terminated.

You need CAP_NET_ADMIN to trigger these so it's not the end of the
world.
