strreplace() function within brcmf c preinit dcmds(). The issue is triggered when the buffer is filled with a CLM version string by memcpy() in brcmf fil iovar data get(). This can lead to a system crash. The issue was discovered through a modified version of syzkaller.Recommendations
Update to a version after 5.14.0+ #132.
