From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Thanks for finding this. Here is my
cppcheck detected a buffer overflow:
[drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.c:634]: (error) Width 8
given in format string (no. 1) is larger than destination buffer
'cmd[8]', use %7s to prevent overflowing it.
For the current %8s sscanf we require cmd to be 9 chars long
so increase it by 1 byte to prevent the sscan overflow (rather
than reduce the %8s specifier to %7s as cppcheck recommends).
