commitc22c7b735fupstream. regex_match_full() calls strncmp(str, r->pattern, len) where len is the target field buffer size. When len is smaller than r->len (the filter pattern length), strncmp() checks only len bytes of r->pattern against str. If those len bytes match, strncmp() returns 0, resulting in a false-positive match where a shorter string in a fixed-size field matches a longer filter pattern. For example, a 4-byte static string field containing "abcd" matched the filter pattern "abcdefgh" because strncmp("abcd", "abcdefgh", 4) returned 0. In this case, @len does NOT include '\0' because it is fixed-size array. Fix this by returning 0 (no match) early when len < r->len.

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.
