[PATCH 3.12 038/123] staging: rtl8712: prevent buffer overrun in recvbuf2recvframe
From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Tue Aug 04 2015 - 11:13:55 EST
From: Haggai Eran <haggai.eran@xxxxxxxxx>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit cab462140f8a183e3cca0b51c8b59ef715cb6148 upstream.
With an RTL8191SU USB adaptor, sometimes the hints for a fragmented
packet are set, but the packet length is too large. Allocate enough
space to prevent memory corruption and a resulting kernel panic [1].
