Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 06:14:43 -0700 From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org> To: Michal Marek <mmarek@...e.cz> Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linux-kbuild@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: replace unbounded sprintf call in modpost The modpost tool could overflow its stack buffer if someone was running with an insane shell environment. Regardless, it's technically a bug, so this fixes it to truncate the string instead of seg-faulting. Found by Coverity.
