Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2015 07:06:58 -0400 From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com> To: rostedt@...dmis.org, mingo@...hat.com Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com> Subject: [PATCH] tracepoint: don't make assumptions about length of string on task rename While the dest comm string size is assured to be at least TASK_COMM_LEN long, doing a memcpy() also adds the assumption that the source is at least that long as well, which isn't assured, and isn't true in cases such as: set_task_comm(worker->task, "kworker/dying"); This leads to accessing invalid memory.
