[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 015/218] USB: cdc-acm: more sanity checking

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

 



4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx>

commit 8835ba4a39cf53f705417b3b3a94eb067673f2c9 upstream.

An attack has become available which pretends to be a quirky
device circumventing normal sanity checks and crashes the kernel
by an insufficient number of interfaces. This patch adds a check
to the code path for quirky devices.
