[PATCH 5/9] libxtables: fix memory scribble beyond end of array

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

 



When using -s "", the "n" variable in the code remains uninitialized
and usually scribbes beyond the end of the array.

Furthermore, "n" is just as big as entries in the last host lookup.
When specifying more than one item to -s, e.g. "-s host,host", "n" is
less than "count", and we are not masking the addresses at all
(leaving them at addr/32 resp. addr/128).

The issue goes back to the initial code from v1.4.5~21.
