[PATCH] ar5523: check NULL before memcpy() in ar5523_cmd()

From: Denis Efremov <efremov@linux.com>
Date: 2019-09-30 14:02:27
Also in: lkml, netdev, stable
Subsystem: atheros ath generic utilities, the rest, usb ar5523 wireless driver · Maintainers: Jeff Johnson, Linus Torvalds

memcpy() call with "idata == NULL && ilen == 0" results in undefined
behavior in ar5523_cmd(). For example, NULL is passed in callchain
"ar5523_stat_work() -> ar5523_cmd_write() -> ar5523_cmd()". This patch
adds idata check before memcpy() call in ar5523_cmd() to prevent an
undefined behavior.
