From 9c750c9809ddeb36dffc376ad26e7864d4c2a259 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Antonio Quartulli Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2012 18:54:25 +0200 Subject: mac80211: fix SSID copy on IBSS JOIN commit badecb001a310408d3473b1fc2ed5aefd0bc92a9 upstream. The 'ssid' field of the cfg80211_ibss_params is a u8 pointer and its length is likely to be less than IEEE80211_MAX_SSID_LEN most of the time. This patch fixes the ssid copy in ieee80211_ibss_join() by using the SSID length to prevent it from reading beyond the string.
