Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: verify tt len does not exceed packet len
Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:12:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363039948-27190-2-git-send-email-ordex@autistici.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1363039948-27190-1-git-send-email-ordex@autistici.org>
From: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>
batadv_iv_ogm_process() accesses the packet using the tt_num_changes
attribute regardless of the real packet len (assuming the length check
was done before). Therefore a length check is needed to avoid reading
random memory.
