Subject: [PATCH 3.16 24/25] cfg80211: wext: avoid copying malformed SSIDs

3.16.77-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will@...nel.org>

commit 4ac2813cc867ae563a1ba5a9414bfb554e5796fa upstream.

Ensure the SSID element is bounds-checked prior to invoking memcpy()
with its length field, when copying to userspace.
