[PATCH] autofs4: check dev ioctl size before allocating

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There wasn't any check of the size passed from userspace before
trying to allocate the memory required.

This meant that userspace might request more space than allowed,
triggering an OOM.
