[U-Boot] [PATCH 4/6] lzma: correctly bounds-check output buffer

Kees Cook keescook at chromium.org
Tue Aug 13 01:02:02 CEST 2013


The output buffer size must be correctly passed to the lzma decoder or
there is a risk of overflowing memory during decompression. Switching
to the LZMA_FINISH_END mode means nothing is left in an unknown state
once the buffer becomes full.
