`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. We expect both `kim_data->dev_name` and `kim_gdata->dev_name` to be NUL-terminated. `kim_data->dev_name` seems to not require NUL-padding. `kim_gdata` is already zero-allocated and as such does not require NUL-padding: | kim_gdata = kzalloc(sizeof(struct kim_data_s), GFP_KERNEL); Considering the above, a suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer without unnecessarily NUL-padding. Let's also opt to use the more idiomatic strscpy usage of: strscpy(dest, src, sizeof(dest)) Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strncpy-on-nul-terminated-strings [1] Link: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/linux-manual-4.8/strscpy.9.en.html [2] Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/90 Cc: linux-hardening@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231003-strncpy-drivers-misc-ti-st-st_kim-c-v2-1-79630447b0a1@google.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |
