[PATCH 4.4 11/16] netfilter: x_tables: check for size overflow

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

 



From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d157bd761585605b7882935ffb86286919f62ea1 ]

Ben Hawkes says:
 integer overflow in xt_alloc_table_info, which on 32-bit systems can
 lead to small structure allocation and a copy_from_user based heap
 corruption.
