Subject: [patch 6/9] [PATCH] ctcm: avoid wraparound in length of incoming data
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2009 13:29:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090324124336.071171000@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20090324122904.744942000@linux.vnet.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: 625-ctcm-wraparound.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1747 bytes --]

From: Roel Kluin <roel.kluin@gmail.com>

Since the receive code should tolerate any incoming garbage, it
should be protected against a potential wraparound when manipulating
length values within incoming data. 
block_len is unsigned, so a too large subtraction will cause a
wraparound.
