Subject: [char-misc 3.10 backport] mei: bus: fix possible boundaries violation
Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2014 13:32:54 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414060374-1879-1-git-send-email-tomas.winkler@intel.com> (raw)
From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@intel.com>
commit cfda2794b5afe7ce64ee9605c64bef0e56a48125 upstream.
function 'strncpy' will fill whole buffer 'id.name' of fixed size (32)
with string value and will not leave place for NULL-terminator.
Possible buffer boundaries violation in following string operations.
Replace strncpy with strlcpy.
