Subject: netfilter 02/08: xt_recent: fix buffer overflow
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2010 18:49:30 +0100 (MET) [thread overview]

commit 2c08522e5d2f0af2d6f05be558946dcbf8173683

netfilter: xt_recent: fix buffer overflow
e->index overflows e->stamps[] every ip_pkt_list_tot packets.
Consider the case when ip_pkt_list_tot==1; the first packet received is stored
in e->stamps[0] and e->index is initialized to 1. The next received packet
timestamp is then stored at e->stamps[1] in recent_entry_update(),
a buffer overflow because the maximum e->stamps[] index is 0.
