Miller" , Tejun Heo , linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org , netdev@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] bluetooth: bnep: fix buffer overflow Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 13:54:31 +0300 Message-Id: <1297680871-11617-1-git-send-email-segoon@openwall.com> List-ID: Struct ca is copied from userspace. It is not checked whether the "device" field is NULL terminated. This potentially leads to BUG() inside of alloc_netdev_mqs() and/or information leak by creating a device with a name made of contents of kernel stack.
