Subject: [md PATCH 4/8] md: avoid array overflow with bad v1.x metadata
Date: Mon, 03 Aug 2009 07:58:18 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090802215818.4198.19159.stgit@notabene.brown> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090802215444.4198.83094.stgit@notabene.brown>
We trust the 'desc_nr' field in v1.x metadata enough to use it
as an index in an array. This isn't really safe.
So range-check the value first.
