From: Prasad J Pandit <p...@fedoraproject.org> The interface names in qemu-bridge-helper are defined to be of size IFNAMSIZ(=16), including the terminating null('\0') byte. The same is applied to interface names read from 'bridge.conf' file to form ACLs rules. If user supplied '--br=bridge' name is not restricted to the same length, it could lead to ACL bypass issue. Restrict interface name to IFNAMSIZ, including null byte.
