Re: [LTP] cve: add pwnescape reproducer

[Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>]

Hi Andrea, all,

I'm verifying it at least on some of SLES versions.

FYI on 4.12 and 4.4 based SLES kernels with backported 6785011f8b16 (i.e. fixed
kernels) the test fails:
pwnescape.c:213: TBROK: control datagram was not forwarded back

=> obviously test is not working on older codestreams, that would be good to get
fixed. I try to have look on it, but I'm not sure if I manage it till the end of
the month.

Otherwise LGTM, thanks!

Sure, I can add it before merge.

Sure.

Kind regards,
