[PATCH 3.2 56/59] ipv6: avoid overflow of offset in ip6_find_1stfragopt

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

 



3.2.92-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6399f1fae4ec29fab5ec76070435555e256ca3a6 upstream.

In some cases, offset can overflow and can cause an infinite loop in
ip6_find_1stfragopt(). Make it unsigned int to prevent the overflow, and
cap it at IPV6_MAXPLEN, since packets larger than that should be invalid.

This problem has been here since before the beginning of git history.
