The function hai_dump_data_field will do a stack buffer overrun when cat'ing /sys/fs/lustre/.../hsm/actions if an action has some data in it. hai_dump_data_field uses snprintf. But there is no check for truncation, and the value returned by snprintf is used as-is. The coordinator code calls hai_dump_data_field with 12 bytes in the buffer. The 6th byte of data is printed incompletely to make room for the terminating NUL. However snprintf still returns 2, so when hai_dump_data_field writes the final NUL, it does it outside the reserved buffer, in the 13th byte of the buffer. This stack buffer overrun hangs my VM. Fix by checking that there is enough room for the next 2 characters plus the NUL terminator. Don't print half bytes. Change the format to 02X instead of .2X, which makes more sense.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
