Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ptp: ocp: Limit signal/freq counts in summary output functions The debugfs summary output could access uninitialized elements in the freq_in[] and signal_out[] arrays, causing NULL pointer dereferences and triggering a kernel Oops (page_fault_oops). This patch adds u8 fields (nr_freq_in, nr_signal_out) to track the number of initialized elements, with a maximum of 4 per array. The summary output functions are updated to respect these limits, preventing out-of-bounds access and ensuring safe array handling. Widen the label variables because the change confuses GCC about max length of the strings.

Las funciones de salida de resumen se actualizan para respetar estos l\u00edmites, lo que evita el acceso fuera de los l\u00edmites y garantiza el manejo seguro de la matriz. Ampl\u00ede las variables de etiqueta porque el cambio confunde a GCC sobre la longitud m\u00e1xima de las cadenas."
