  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  net: txgbe: fix heap overflow when reading module EEPROM  txgbe_read_eeprom_hostif() always copies round_up(length, 4) bytes into the caller buffer, which ethtool allocates with exactly \u0027length\u0027 bytes. A non-4-aligned length therefore causes an out-of-bounds write. Copy only the remaining bytes on the final dword instead.",
