In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: lan743x: Modify the EEPROM and OTP size for PCI1xxxx devices Maximum OTP and EEPROM size for hearthstone PCI1xxxx devices are 8 Kb and 64 Kb respectively. Adjust max size definitions and return correct EEPROM length based on device. Also prevent out-of-bound read/write.
