commit45e1058b77upstream. The call to: ret = simple_write_to_buffer(buf, size, offp, ubuf, size); will return success if it is able to write even one byte to "buf". The value of "*offp" controls which byte. This could result in reading uninitialized data when we do the sscanf() on the next line. This code is not really desigined to handle partial writes where *offp is non-zero and the "buf" is preserved and re-used between writes. Just ban partial writes and replace the simple_write_to_buffer() with copy_from_user().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
