Subject: [PATCH v3] Prevent crashing when parsing bad X.25 facilities
Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 15:42:28 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1289594548.3090.334.camel@Dan> (raw)
Now with improved comma support.
On parsing malformed X.25 facilities, decrementing the remaining length
may cause it to underflow. Since the length is an unsigned integer,
this will result in the loop continuing until the kernel crashes.
This patch adds checks to ensure decrementing the remaining length does
not cause it to wrap around.
