This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    staging: r8188eu: prevent ->Ssid overflow in rtw_wx_set_scan()

to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-testing branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will be merged to the staging-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: staging: r8188eu: prevent ->Ssid overflow in rtw_wx_set_scan()

This code has a check to prevent read overflow but it needs another check to prevent writing beyond the end of the ->Ssid[] array.

Fixes 2b42bd58b321 ("staging: r8188eu: introduce new os_dep dir for RTL8188eu driver")
