Re: [PATCH 6.7 052/353] sysctl: Fix out of bounds access for empty sysctl registers

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

 



Looks good to me 

This patch depends on 53f3811dfd5e39507ee3aaea1be09aabce8f9c98  "sysctl:
Use ctl_table_size as stopping criteria for list macro" and
1e887723545e037b5e200e77edf79802f58fc818  "sysctl: Add ctl_table_size to
ctl_table_header" which are both in 6.7 and 6.6.

Best
