[PATCH 3.18 18/35] net/packet: check length in getsockopt() called with PACKET_HDRLEN

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

 



3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit fd2c83b35752f0a8236b976978ad4658df14a59f ]

In the case getsockopt() is called with PACKET_HDRLEN and optlen < 4
|val| remains uninitialized and the syscall may behave differently
depending on its value, and even copy garbage to userspace on certain
architectures. To fix this we now return -EINVAL if optlen is too small.

This bug has been detected with KMSAN.
