Bruce Fields" <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 29 Feb 2016 20:21:21 -0500 Subject: nfsd4: fix bad bounds checking From: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4aed9c46afb80164401143aa0fdcfe3798baa9d5 upstream. A number of spots in the xdr decoding follow a pattern like n = be32_to_cpup(p++); READ_BUF(n + 4); where n is a u32. The only bounds checking is done in READ_BUF itself, but since it's checking (n + 4), it won't catch cases where n is very large, (u32)(-4) or higher. I'm not sure exactly what the consequences are, but we've seen crashes soon after. Instead, just break these up into two READ_BUF()s. Signed-off-by: J.
