[PATCH 3.12 068/176] netfilter: ipset: small potential read beyond the end of buffer

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Thu Jan 29 2015 - 04:56:40 EST


From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 2196937e12b1b4ba139806d132647e1651d655df upstream.

We could be reading 8 bytes into a 4 byte buffer here. It seems
harmless but adding a check is the right thing to do and it silences a
static checker warning.
