Subject: [PATCH v2] wil6210: debugfs: fix info leak in wil_write_file_wmi()
Date: Fri, 8 Jul 2022 16:49:20 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Ysg14NdKAZF/hcNG@kili> (raw)

The simple_write_to_buffer() function will succeed if even a single
byte is initialized.  However, we need to initialize the whole buffer
to prevent information leaks.  Just use memdup_user().

Fixes: ff974e408334 ("wil6210: debugfs interface to send raw WMI command")

v2:  In v1 this was part of a two patch series.  The second patch was a
     cleanup path and it introduced a bug.  Just drop patch 2.
