Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ligceph: fix overflow in __decode_pool_names()
Date: Sun, 29 Apr 2012 02:59:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1335682765-1643-1-git-send-email-xi.wang@gmail.com> (raw)

`len' is read from network and thus needs validation.  Otherwise a
large `len' would cause out-of-bounds access via the memcpy() call.
In addition, len = 0xffffffff would overflow the kmalloc() size,
leading to out-of-bounds write.

This patch adds a check of `len' via ceph_decode_need().  Also use
kstrndup rather than kmalloc/memcpy.
