[PATCH 1/1] netfilter: cttimeout: fix buffer overflow

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

 



Chen Gang reports:
the length of nla_data(cda[CTA_TIMEOUT_NAME]) is not limited in server side.

And indeed, its used to strcpy to a fixed-sized buffer.

Fortunately, nfnetlink users need CAP_NET_ADMIN.
