From 56e3b1470333eb9294a5ae5f58515377aa546aae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heinrich Schuchardt Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2022 11:53:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: don't memcpy to NULL In ndisc_receive() 7 bytes are copied from a buffer of size 6 to NULL. net_nd_packet_mac is a pointer. If it is NULL, we should set it to the address of the buffer with the MAC address.
