strncpy() is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1] and as such we should prefer more robust and less ambiguous string interfaces. Let's use the new 2-argument strscpy() which guarantees NUL-termination on the destination buffer while also simplifying the syntax. Note that strscpy() will not NUL-pad the destination buffer like strncpy() does. However, the NUL-padding behavior of strncpy() is not required since fbdev is already NUL-allocated from au1200fb_drv_probe() -> frameuffer_alloc(), rendering any additional NUL-padding redundant. | p = kzalloc(fb_info_size + size, GFP_KERNEL); Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strncpy-on-nul-terminated-strings [1] Link: https://manpages.debian.org/testing/linux-manual-4.8/strscpy.9.en.html [2] Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/90 Cc: linux-hardening@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Justin Stitt <justinstitt@google.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
