From 000ade8016400d93b4d7c89970d96b8c14773d45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sultan Alsawaf Date: Wed, 6 Jun 2018 15:56:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ip_tunnel: Fix name string concatenate in __ip_tunnel_create() By passing a limit of 2 bytes to strncat, strncat is limited to writing fewer bytes than what it's supposed to append to the name here. Since the bounds are checked on the line above this, just remove the string bounds checks entirely since they're unneeded. Signed-off-by: Sultan Alsawaf Signed-off-by: David S.
