Dear Mikael,
Thank you for your patch.

The ETHTOOL_SETEEPROM ioctl copies user data into a kmalloc'ed buffer without validating eeprom->len and eeprom->offset. A CAP_NET_ADMIN user can overflow the heap and crash the kernel or gain code execution.
Validate length and offset before memcpy().

I think you used spaces instead of tabs for indentation. It’d be great if you could fix this, and send v3 tomorrow. Running `scripts/ checkpatch.pl` with the patch as an argument, should catch these things.
Should a warning/error be logged if the condition is true?
memcpy(ptr, bytes, eeprom->len); for (i = 0; i < last_word - first_word + 1; i++)
Kind regards,
Paul
