X-Git-Tag: mdadm-3.3.2~21 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1f17f96b538793a0e665e471f602c6fa490ec167;p=thirdparty%2Fmdadm.git DDF: validate metadata_update size before using it. process_update already checks update->len, for all but the 'magic', prepare_update doesn't at all. So add tests to prepare_update that we don't exceed the buffer. This will consequently protect process_update from looking for a 'magic' which isn't there.
