Subject: [PATCH] Check for SOL_SOCKET in compat_sys_getsockopt
Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2005 15:33:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050103143306.GG25446@suse.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 417 bytes --]

compat_sys_getsockopt checks for SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO without
making sure that the level is actually SOL_SOCKET. This can break
getsockopt() requests for other protocols.

Cheers, and a happy new year to everyone!
Olaf
