From 4b030d4288a569d6bdeca884d7f102d951f097f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 4 Aug 2010 23:38:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] isdn: fix information leak The main motivation of this patch changing strcpy() to strlcpy(). We strcpy() to copy a 48 byte buffers into a 49 byte buffers. So at best the last byte has leaked information, or maybe there is an overflow? Anyway, this patch closes the information leaks by zeroing the memory and the calls to strlcpy() prevent overflows. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: David S.
