V4L/DVB (13378): konicawc.c: possible buffer overflow while use strncat
In driver ./drivers/media/video/usbvideo/konicawc.c in line 227: 227 usb_make_path(dev, cam->input_physname, sizeof(cam->input_physname)); After this line we use strncat: 228 strncat(cam->input_physname, "/input0", sizeof(cam->input_physname)); where sizeof(cam->input_physname) returns length of cam->input_phisname without length for null-symbol. But this parameter must be - "maximum numbers of bytes to copy", i.e.: sizeof(cam->input_physname)-strlen(cam->input_physname)-1. In this case, after call to usb_make_path the similar drivers use strlcat. Like in drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c: 1152 usb_make_path(dev, hid->phys, sizeof(hid->phys)); 1153 strlcat(hid->phys, "/input", sizeof(hid->phys)); Found by Linux Driver Verification Project. Use strlcat instead of strncat. Signed-off-by: Alexander Strakh <strakh@ispras.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
