Package: laptop-netconf
Version: 0.9.6
There is a bug in laptop-netconf (both version 0.9.6 in testing/unstable,
and version 0.9-1.1 in woody) which can cause two different hardware
addresses to compare as equal.
laptop_netconf uses
strncmp (cycle->hardware_address, arp_header->ar_sha, 6)
to compare hardware addresses. However, it is not uncommon for
MAC addresses to contain null bytes, especially in the first or
second position. In such cases, subsequent bytes will not be
looked at by strncmp().
The fix? Use memcmp() instead.
