Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ad8a6f6b17 uru4000: Prevent a buffer overflow on reading the device image data
num_lines comes from the device for each block and is summed into
the source row index (r) and destination byte offset (to).
Neither the per-block value nor the running totals are otherwise bound,
so a malicious device could drive the copy past the source
(IMAGE_HEIGHT rows) or destination buffer.

History

LibFPrint was originally developed as part of an academic project at the University Of Manchester.

It aimed to hide the differences between consumer fingerprint scanners and provide a single uniform API to application developers.

Goal

The ultimate goal of the FPrint project is to make fingerprint scanners widely and easily usable under common Linux environments.

License

Section 6 of the license states that for compiled works that use this library, such works must include LibFPrint copyright notices alongside the copyright notices for the other parts of the work.

LibFPrint includes code from NIST's NBIS software distribution.

We include Bozorth3 from the US Export Controlled distribution, which we have determined to be fine being shipped in an open source project.

Description
Library for fingerprint readers For unsupported devices, please see/edit https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/wiki/-/wikis/Unsupported%20Devices Do **not** open issues for unsupported devices that are already listed in the wiki page. For other devices, please simply add them to the wiki rather than opening a bug report here. Opening an issue to ask for a driver will not have any effect other than taking time from developers who need to close the issue again.
