From: Eliad Peller <[email protected]> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know.
=============== commit a5fe8e7695dc3f547e955ad2b662e3e72969e506 upstream. alpha2 is defined as 2-chars array, but is used in multiple places as string (e.g. with nla_put_string calls), which might leak kernel data. Solve it by simply adding an extra char for the NULL terminator, making such operations safe.
