[PATCH] 6lowpan: iphc: Fix an off-by-one check of array index

From: Colin King <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-12 12:14:55

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

The bounds check of id is off-by-one and the comparison should
be >= rather >. Currently the WARN_ON_ONCE check does not stop
the out of range indexing of &ldev->ctx.table[id] so also add
a return path if the bounds are out of range.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Illegal address computation").

Hi Colin,
The bounds check of id is off-by-one and the comparison should
be >= rather >. Currently the WARN_ON_ONCE check does not stop
the out of range indexing of &ldev->ctx.table[id] so also add
a return path if the bounds are out of range.
