V4L/DVB (13379): quickcam_messenger: possible buffer overflow while use strncat
In driver ./drivers/media/video/usbvideo/quickcam_messenger.c in line 91:
91 usb_make_path(dev, cam->input_physname, sizeof(cam->input_physname));
After this line we use strncat:
92 strncat(cam->input_physname, "/input0", sizeof(cam->input_physname));
where sizeof(cam->input_physname) returns length of cam->input_phisname
without length for null-symbol. But this parameter must be - "maximum
numbers of bytes to copy", i.e.:
sizeof(cam->input_physname)-strlen(cam->input_physname)-1.
In this case, after call to usb_make_path the similar drivers use strlcat.
Like in: drivers/hid/usbhid/hid-core.c:
1152 usb_make_path(dev, hid->phys, sizeof(hid->phys));
1153 strlcat(hid->phys, "/input", sizeof(hid->phys));
Found by Linux Driver Verification Project.
Use strlcat instead of strncat.
