Subject: [patch 07/26] [NETLINK]: Fix processing of fib_lookup netlink messages
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 00:22:33 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051213082233.GH5823@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20051213082143.GA5823@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: fix-processing-of-fib_lookup-netlink-messages.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1179 bytes --]

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

------------------
From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

The receive path for fib_lookup netlink messages is lacking sanity
checks for header and payload and is thus vulnerable to malformed
netlink messages causing illegal memory references.
