[PATCH v2] netfilter: nf_tables: prevent shift wrap in nft_chain_parse_hook()

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

 



I believe that "hook->num" can be up to UINT_MAX.  Shifting more than
31 bits would is undefined in C but in practice it would lead to shift
wrapping.  That would lead to an array overflow in nf_tables_addchain():

	ops->hook       = hook.type->hooks[ops->hooknum];

v2:  In my original fix I thought making shifts unsigned was defined in
C but it's not.  My original patch didn't fix or change runtime at all.

Thanks to Florian Westphal for his help on this.
