[GIT PULL] Keyrings fixes, including one CVE fix

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

 



Hi Linus,

Could you these directly please?  James asked me to pass them directly on to
you.  There are two fixes:

 (1) Fix for the order in which things are done during key garbage
     collection to prevent named keyrings causing a crash [CVE-2014-9529].

 (2) Fix assoc_array to explicitly #include rcupdate.h to prevent compilation
     errors under certain circumstances.
