From f9ac71bfcc5c937ff02765dc316cf5bc01d21d97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eliad Peller Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2014 14:46:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix vif name tracing If sdata doesn't have a valid dev (e.g. in case of monitor vif), the vif_name field was initialized with (a length of) some short string, but later was set to a different, potentially larger one. This resulted in out-of-bounds write, which usually appeared as garbage in the trace log. Simply trace sdata->name, as it should always have the correct name for both cases.
