[PATCH 3.2 143/152] netfilter: ipset: small potential read beyond the end of buffer

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Mon Feb 16 2015 - 21:48:35 EST


3.2.67-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

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.
