tg3: fix length overflow in VPD firmware parsing
Commit 184b8904 ("tg3: Use VPD fw version when present") introduced VPD parsing that contained a potential length overflow. Limit the hardware's reported firmware string length (max 255 bytes) to stay inside the driver's firmware string length (32 bytes). On overflow, truncate the formatted firmware string instead of potentially overwriting portions of the tg3 struct. http://cansecwest.com/slides/2013/PrivateCore%20CSW%202013.pdfSigned-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reported-by: Oded Horovitz <oded@privatecore.com> Reported-by: Brad Spengler <spender@grsecurity.net> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
