[edk2-devel] [PATCH v2 1/1] ShellPkg: acpiview: Validate ACPI table 'Length' field

[Krzysztof Koch]

Check if the ACPI table length, as reported in the ACPI table header, is
big enough to fit at least the header itself.

If not, report an error to the user and stop parsing the table in order
to prevent buffer overruns.
