Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bnxt: Do not read past the end of test names Test names were being concatenated based on a offset beyond the end of
the first name, which tripped the buffer overflow detection logic: detected buffer overflow in strnlen [...] Call Trace: bnxt_ethtool_init.cold+0x18/0x18 Refactor struct hwrm_selftest_qlist_output to use an actual array,
and adjust the concatenation to use snprintf() rather than a series of
strncat() calls.
A flaw was found in the bnxt_en module in the Linux kernel. An out-of-bounds read can occur due to an incorrect concatenation of test names, causing a system crash that results in a denial of service.
