From db048b69037e7fa6a7d9e95a1271a50dc08ae233 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Mon, 28 Jun 2010 08:44:07 +0000 Subject: ethtool: Fix potential kernel buffer overflow in ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL On a 32-bit machine, info.rule_cnt >= 0x40000000 leads to integer overflow and the buffer may be smaller than needed. Since ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL is unprivileged, this can presumably be used for at least denial of service. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: David S.
