CVE-2024-50129: net: pse-pd: Fix out of bound for loop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: pse-pd: Fix out of bound for loop
Adjust the loop limit to prevent out-of-bounds access when iterating over PI structures. The loop should not reach the index pcdev->nrlines since we allocate exactly pcdev->nrlines number of PI structures. This fix ensures proper bounds are maintained during iterations.
