From: Raja Mani Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2012 09:38:54 +0000 (+0530) Subject: ath6kl: Check for valid rate table index X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d54601b92fbde2a7021a844e1373ba8c778cc0a3;p=linux-beck.git ath6kl: Check for valid rate table index There are 28 items defined in rate table array 'wmi_rate_tbl'. The rate table index (reply->rate_index) in ath6kl_wmi_bitrate_reply_rx() func is not checked for the valid max limit index before accessing rate table array. There may be some incidents to get memory crashes without safe max check. Fix this. Found this on code review.
