From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ac7f1061c2c11bb8936b1b6a94cdb48de732f7a4 ] Current code does: if (sscanf(dentry->d_name.name, "%lx-%lx", start, end) != 2) However sscanf() is broken garbage. It silently accepts whitespace between format specifiers (did you know that?). It silently accepts valid strings which result in integer overflow. Do not use sscanf() for any even remotely reliable parsing code.

It was a bug in criu. And this bug is on a minor : path, which works when memfd_create() isn't available. It is a reason why : I ask to not backport this patch to stable kernels. : : In CRIU this bug can be triggered, only if this patch will be backported : to a kernel which version is lower than v3.16.
