The only thing we are missing is making sure that there is room to get the proper address family and I think you can do that without adding any extra variables: if (walk_size + sizeof(sa_family_t) > addr_size) { /* Not enough room for address family */ kfree(kaddrs); return -EINVAL; } -vlad > sa_addr = (struct sockaddr *)addr_buf; > af = sctp_get_af_specific(sa_addr->sa_family); > > @@ -929,6 +937,7 @@ SCTP_STATIC int sctp_setsockopt_bindx(st > addrcnt++; > addr_buf += af->sockaddr_len; > walk_size += af->sockaddr_len; > + remaining -= af->sockaddr_len; > } > > /* Do the work. */ > @@ -984,6 +993,7 @@ static int __sctp_connect(struct sock* s > void *addr_buf; > unsigned short port; > unsigned int f_flags = 0; > + unsigned int remaining = addrs_size; > > sp = sctp_sk(sk); > ep = sp->ep; > @@ -1002,6 +1012,13 @@ static int __sctp_connect(struct sock* s > /* Walk through the addrs buffer and count the number of addresses. */ > addr_buf = kaddrs; > while (walk_size < addrs_size) { > + > + /* Don't read out-of-bounds memory */ > + if (remaining < sizeof(union sctp_addr)) { > + err = -EINVAL; > + goto out_free; > + } > + > sa_addr = (union sctp_addr *)addr_buf; > af = sctp_get_af_specific(sa_addr->sa.sa_family); > port = ntohs(sa_addr->v4.sin_port); > @@ -1101,6 +1118,7 @@ static int __sctp_connect(struct sock* s > addrcnt++; > addr_buf += af->sockaddr_len; > walk_size += af->sockaddr_len; > + remaining -= af->sockaddr_len; > } > > /* In case the user of sctp_connectx() wants an association > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
