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

 



5.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Remi Pommarel <repk@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f2f7358c3890e7366cbcb7512b4bc8b4394b2d61 ]

The number of TT changes can be less than initially expected in
batadv_tt_tvlv_container_update() (changes can be removed by
batadv_tt_local_event() in ADD+DEL sequence between reading
tt_diff_entries_num and actually iterating the change list under lock).

Thus tt_diff_len could be bigger than the actual changes size that need
to be sent. Because batadv_send_my_tt_response sends the whole
packet, uninitialized data can be interpreted as TT changes on other
nodes leading to weird TT global entries on those nodes such as:

 * 00:00:00:00:00:00   -1 [....] (  0) 88:12:4e:ad:7e:ba (179) (0x45845380)
 * 00:00:00:00:78:79 4092 [.W..] (  0) 88:12:4e:ad:7e:3c (145) (0x8ebadb8b)

All of the above also applies to OGM tvlv container buffer's tvlv_len.

Remove the extra allocated space to avoid sending uninitialized TT
changes in batadv_send_my_tt_response() and batadv_v_ogm_send_softif().
