Summary
Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/page_owner: use strscpy() instead of strlcpy() current->comm[] is not a string (no guarantee for a zero byte in it). strlcpy(s1, s2, l) is calling strlen(s2), potentially
causing out-of-bound access, as reported by syzbot: detected buffer overflow in __fortify_strlen
