This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled xfrm_user: uncoditionally validate esn replay attribute struct to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: xfrm_user-uncoditionally-validate-esn-replay-attribute-struct.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From d97ca5d714a5334aecadadf696875da40f1fbf3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2018 14:42:01 +0100 Subject: xfrm_user: uncoditionally validate esn replay attribute struct From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx> commit d97ca5d714a5334aecadadf696875da40f1fbf3e upstream. The sanity test added in ecd7918745234 can be bypassed, validation only occurs if XFRM_STATE_ESN flag is set, but rest of code doesn't care and just checks if the attribute itself is present. So always validate. Alternative is to reject if we have the attribute without the flag but that would change abi.
