If a link name which is not null-terminated is passed through\nnetlink, strstr() and similar functions can cause buffer overrun. This\ncauses the above issue.\n\nThis patch changes the nla_policy for bearer-related names from NLA_STRING\nto NLA_NUL_STRING. This resolves the issue by ensuring that only\nnull-terminated strings are accepted as bearer-related names.\n\nsyzbot reported similar uninit-value issue related to bearer names [2]. The\nroot cause of this issue is that a non-null-terminated bearer name was\npassed. This patch also resolved this issue."
