staging: dgrp: fix potential call to strncpy with a negative number
In dgrp_receive() there is: desclen = ((plen - 12) > MAX_DESC_LEN) ? MAX_DESC_LEN : plen - 12; strncpy(nd->nd_ps_desc, b + 12, desclen); However, it's possible for plen to be <= 12 here so we'd be passing a negative number into the strncpy(). Fix this to not make the strncpy call and report an error if desclen is <= 0 Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Bill Pemberton <wfp5p@virginia.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
