In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen()

Patch series "lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in
ucs2_strnlen()", v2.

This series fixes an off-by-one out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen().

The first patch is the real fix, the second patch comes as a bonus and
fixes the code indentation.

This patch (of 2):

ucs2_strnlen() checks the current character before checking whether the
caller-provided maximum length has been reached. If the input is not
NUL-terminated within that bound, the loop can read one ucs2_char_t past
the limit.

Test the length before dereferencing to prevent an off-by-one
out-of-bounds read.
