Hi,

scsi: esp: OOB write while writing to 's->cmdbuf' in esp_reg_write

CVE-2016-4441[1]:
scsi: esp: OOB write while writing to 's->cmdbuf' in get_cmd

If you fix the vulnerabilities please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) ids in your changelog entry.

For further information see:

[0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-4439
[1] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-4441

Please adjust the affected versions in the BTS as needed.

I think this does not warrant a DSA on it's own but can be obviously
included in any future DSA.

Salvatore
