From 6b0e32fa35dbb002e7b6d2b6529cd3543b07bdef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davide Caratti Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2016 18:41:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] lib/ll_addr: improve ll_addr_n2a() a bit Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1300765 Upstream Status: iproute2.git commit f63ed3e62989 commit f63ed3e629893046aca58a3bb409a3ff909a8fae Author: Phil Sutter Date: Tue Mar 22 19:35:19 2016 +0100 lib/ll_addr: improve ll_addr_n2a() a bit Apart from making the code a bit more compact and efficient, this also prevents a potential buffer overflow if the passed buffer is really too small: Although correctly decrementing the size parameter passed to snprintf, it could become negative which would then wrap since snprintf uses (unsigned) size_t for the parameter.
