Subject: [4/5] [SCSI] gdth: integer overflow in ioctl
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2010 13:30:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101119213231.949256463@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101119213300.GA4637@kroah.com>

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com>

commit f63ae56e4e97fb12053590e41a4fa59e7daa74a4 upstream.

gdth_ioctl_alloc() takes the size variable as an int.
copy_from_user() takes the size variable as an unsigned long.
gen.data_len and gen.sense_len are unsigned longs.
On x86_64 longs are 64 bit and ints are 32 bit.

We could pass in a very large number and the allocation would truncate
the size to 32 bits and allocate a small buffer.  Then when we do the
copy_from_user(), it would result in a memory corruption.
