Subject: [PATCH net v2] net/x25: prevent a couple of overflows
Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2020 18:15:12 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <X8ZeAKm8FnFpN//B@mwanda> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ecf3321f20cc4f6dcf02b5b73105da58@dev.tdt.de>

The .x25_addr[] address comes from the user and is not necessarily
NUL terminated.  This leads to a couple problems.  The first problem is
that the strlen() in x25_bind() can read beyond the end of the buffer.

The second problem is more subtle and could result in memory corruption.
The call tree is:
  x25_connect()
  --> x25_write_internal()
      --> x25_addr_aton()

The .x25_addr[] buffers are copied to the "addresses" buffer from
x25_write_internal() so it will lead to stack corruption.

Verify that the strings are NUL terminated and return -EINVAL if they
are not.

The first patch put a NUL terminator on the end of the string and this
patch returns an error instead.  I don't have a strong preference, which
patch to go with.
