[PATCH 3.2 059/221] autofs4: check dev ioctl size before allocating

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

 



3.2.69-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e53d77eb8bb616e903e34cc7a918401bee3b5149 upstream.

There wasn't any check of the size passed from userspace before trying
to allocate the memory required.

This meant that userspace might request more space than allowed,
triggering an OOM.
