Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tools/rtla: Fix clang warning about mount_point var size

clang is reporting this warning:

src/utils.c:548:66: warning: 'fscanf' may overflow; destination buffer in argument 3 has size 1024, but the corresponding specifier may require size 1025 [-Wfortify-source] 548 | while (fscanf(fp, "%s %" STR(MAX_PATH) "s %99s %s %d %d\n", mount_point, type) == 2) { | ^

Increase mount_point variable size to MAX_PATH+1 to avoid the overflow.
