From f468c48d488d0ea2df3422b3e1dfafae1611e853 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 12:44:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: xt_physdev: masks are not c-strings ... and must not be subjected to the 'nul terminated' constraint. If the interface name is 15 characters long, the mask is 16-bytes '0xff' (to cover for \0) and the valid device name is rejected.
