This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled lib/hexdump.c: truncate output in case of overflow to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt1. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From f8f5dc21aee9238e8479c110e69c854cdc67d5f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2015 16:31:31 -0800 Subject: lib/hexdump.c: truncate output in case of overflow commit 9f029f540c2f7e010e4922d44ba0dfd05da79f88 upstream. There is a classical off-by-one error in case when we try to place, for example, 1+1 bytes as hex in the buffer of size 6. The expected result is to get an output truncated, but in the reality we get 6 bytes filed followed by terminating NUL. Change the logic how we fill the output in case of byte dumping into limited space. This will follow the snprintf() behaviour by truncating output even on half bytes.
