If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From f843ee6dd019bcece3e74e76ad9df0155655d0df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2017 07:45:44 +0000 Subject: xfrm_user: validate XFRM_MSG_NEWAE incoming ESN size harder From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit f843ee6dd019bcece3e74e76ad9df0155655d0df upstream. Kees Cook has pointed out that xfrm_replay_state_esn_len() is subject to wrapping issues. To ensure we are correctly ensuring that the two ESN structures are the same size compare both the overall size as reported by xfrm_replay_state_esn_len() and the internal length are the same.
