Subject: x86: fix buffer overflow in efi_init()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fdb8a42742ac95606668f73481dfb2f760658fdd;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

x86: fix buffer overflow in efi_init()

If the vendor name (from c16) can be longer than 100 bytes (or missing a
terminating null), then the null is written past the end of vendor[].
