From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 206204a1162b995e2185275167b22468c00d6b36 upstream. Given some pathologically compressed data, lz4 could possibly decide to wrap a few internal variables, causing unknown things to happen. Catch this before the wrapping happens and abort the decompression. Reported-by: "Don A.
