[PATCH stable v2 1/2] termios, tty/tty_baudrate.c: fix buffer overrun

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

 



From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>

On architectures with CBAUDEX == 0 (Alpha and PowerPC), the code in tty_baudrate.c does
not do any limit checking on the tty_baudrate[] array, and in fact a
buffer overrun is possible on both architectures. Add a limit check to
prevent that situation.

This will be followed by a much bigger cleanup/simplification patch.
