Subject[PATCH 3.14 62/83] mtd: sm_ftl: heap corruption in sm_create_sysfs_attributes()
Date
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>

commit b4c233057771581698a13694ab6f33b48ce837dc upstream.

We always put a NUL terminator one space past the end of the "vendor"
buffer. Walter Harms also pointed out that this should just use
kstrndup().

Fixes: 7d17c02a01a1 ('mtd: Add new SmartMedia/xD FTL')
