Subject: [PATCH] net: ipv4: fix for a race condition in raw_sendmsg
Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2017 03:50:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5a2caf2e.4ce61c0a.5017a.575f@mx.google.com> (raw)
From: Mohamed Ghannam <simo.ghannam@gmail.com>
inet->hdrincl is racy, and could lead to uninitialized stack pointer
usage, so its value should be read only once.
