Subject: [PATCH 4.4 01/23] efi: cper: fix snprintf() use in cper_dimm_err_location()
Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2021 20:26:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210608175926.575148730@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210608175926.524658689@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>
[ Upstream commit 942859d969de7f6f7f2659a79237a758b42782da ]
snprintf() should be given the full buffer size, not one less. And it
guarantees nul-termination, so doing it manually afterwards is
pointless.
It's even potentially harmful (though probably not in practice because
CPER_REC_LEN is 256), due to the "return how much would have been
written had the buffer been big enough" semantics. I.e., if the bank
and/or device strings are long enough that the "DIMM location ..."
output gets truncated, writing to msg[n] is a buffer overflow.
