Subject: [PATCH] net/sctp: Validate parameter size for SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS control message
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2013 11:43:51 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361994231-5355-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)

Building sctp may fail with:

In function ‘copy_from_user’,
    inlined from ‘sctp_getsockopt_assoc_stats’ at
    net/sctp/socket.c:5656:20:
arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_32.h:211:26: error: call to
    ‘copy_from_user_overflow’ declared with attribute error: copy_from_user()
    buffer size is not provably correct

if built with W=1 due to a missing parameter size validation.
