Subject: [patch 14/16] sctp: correct bounds check in sctp_setsockopt_auth_key
Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2008 10:33:11 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080903173311.GO10429@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080903173218.GA10429@suse.de>

[-- Attachment #1: 0011-sctp-correct-bounds-check-in-sctp_setsockopt_auth_k.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1008 bytes --]

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

------------------
From: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

[ Upstream commit 328fc47ea0bcc27d9afa69c3ad6e52431cadd76c ]

The bonds check to prevent buffer overlflow was not exactly
right.  It still allowed overflow of up to 8 bytes which is
sizeof(struct sctp_authkey).

Since optlen is already checked against the size of that struct,
we are guaranteed not to cause interger overflow either.
