Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ext4: fix string copying in parse_apply_sb_mount_options()<br />
<br />
strscpy_pad() can&#39;t be used to copy a non-NUL-term string into a NUL-term<br />
string of possibly bigger size. Commit 0efc5990bca5 ("string.h: Introduce<br />
memtostr() and memtostr_pad()") provides additional information in that<br />
regard. So if this happens, the following warning is observed:<br />
<br />
strnlen: detected buffer overflow: 65 byte read of buffer size 64<br />

<br />
Since userspace is expected to provide s_mount_opts field to be at most 63<br />
characters long with the ending byte being NUL-term, use a 64-byte buffer<br />
which matches the size of s_mount_opts, so that strscpy_pad() does its job<br />
properly. Return with error if the user still managed to provide a<br />
non-NUL-term string here.<br />
