From a9a51bd727d141a67b589f375fe69d0e54c4fe22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oliver Neukum Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2019 11:16:01 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ax88172a: fix information leak on short answers If a malicious device gives a short MAC it can elicit up to 5 bytes of leaked memory out of the driver. We need to check for ETH_ALEN instead. Reported-by: syzbot+a8d4acdad35e6bbca308@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S.
