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

firmware: csdsp: Use strnlen() on name fields in V1 wmfw files

Use strnlen() instead of strlen() on the algorithm and coefficient name string arrays in V1 wmfw files.

In V1 wmfw files the name is a NUL-terminated string in a fixed-size array. csdsp should protect against overrunning the array if the NUL terminator is missing.
