This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: be2iscsi: Add length check when parsing nlattrs to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: scsi-be2iscsi-add-length-check-when-parsing-nlattrs.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 9867af1f5e094ea1a80c0ba20011bda4e7c5444a Author: Lin Ma <linma@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Jul 23 15:59:38 2023 +0800 scsi: be2iscsi: Add length check when parsing nlattrs [ Upstream commit ee0268f230f66cb472df3424f380ea668da2749a ] beiscsi_iface_set_param() parses nlattr with nla_for_each_attr and assumes every attributes can be viewed as struct iscsi_iface_param_info. This is not true because there is no any nla_policy to validate the attributes passed from the upper function iscsi_set_iface_params(). Add the nla_len check before accessing the nlattr data and return EINVAL if the length check fails.
