[added to the 3.18 stable tree] ecryptfs: forbid opening files without mmap handler

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

 



From: Jann Horn <jannh@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87 ]

This prevents users from triggering a stack overflow through a recursive
invocation of pagefault handling that involves mapping procfs files into
virtual memory.
