From: Kees Cook <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 9e4eb1ce472fbf7b007f23c88ec11c37265e401c ]
Using memcpy() from a string that is shorter than the length copied means the destination buffer is being filled with arbitrary data from the kernel rodata segment. Instead, use strncpy() which will fill the trailing bytes with zeros. This was found with the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE feature.
