From eceeb4371240aff22e9a535a2bc57d2311820942 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Sat, 1 Sep 2012 12:54:07 -0700 Subject: thinkpad_acpi: buffer overflow in fan_get_status() The acpi_evalf() function modifies four bytes of data but in fan_get_status() we pass a pointer to u8. I have modified the function to use type checking now.
