From 68c4fce737c4b963e336435f225621dc21138397 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2012 19:33:55 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] vmwgfx: corruption in vmw_event_fence_action_create() We don't allocate enough data for this struct. As soon as we start modifying event->event on the next lines, then we're going beyond the end of the memory we allocated.
