[PATCH 2/5] drivers/net/brocade-bnad: ensure the copied buf is NULL terminated

From: Bui Quang Minh
Date: Mon Apr 22 2024 - 12:44:38 EST


Currently, we allocate a nbytes-sized kernel buffer and copy nbytes from
userspace to that buffer. Later, we use sscanf on this buffer but we don't
ensure that the string is terminated inside the buffer, this can lead to
OOB read when using sscanf. Fix this issue by using memdup_user_nul
instead of memdup_user.

Fixes: 7afc5dbde091 ("bna: Add debugfs interface.")
