econet: Fix crash in aun_incoming().

2011-04-30T14:53:35Z

commit 4e085e76cbe558b79b54cbab772f61185879bc64 upstream. Unconditional use of skb->dev won't work here, try to fetch the econet device via skb_dst()->dev instead. Suggested by Eric Dumazet.

econet: 4 byte infoleak to the network

2011-04-30T14:53:31Z

commit 67c5c6cb8129c595f21e88254a3fc6b3b841ae8e upstream. struct aunhdr has 4 padding bytes between 'pad' and 'handle' fields on x86_64. These bytes are not initialized in the variable 'ah' before sending 'ah' to the network. This leads to 4 bytes kernel stack infoleak. This bug was introduced before the git epoch.

econet: fix CVE-2010-3850

2010-12-09T21:24:21Z

commit 16c41745c7b92a243d0874f534c1655196c64b74 upstream. Add missing check for capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) in SIOCSIFADDR operation. Signed-off-by: Phil Blundell Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

econet: disallow NULL remote addr for sendmsg(), fixes CVE-2010-3849

2010-12-09T21:24:21Z

commit fa0e846494792e722d817b9d3d625a4ef4896c96 upstream. Later parts of econet_sendmsg() rely on saddr != NULL, so return early with EINVAL if NULL was passed otherwise an oops may occur. Signed-off-by: Phil Blundell Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

econet: Fix econet_getname() leak

2009-09-09T03:17:36Z

commit 80922bbb12a105f858a8f0abb879cb4302d0ecaa upstream. econet_getname() can leak kernel memory to user. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

netns: Use net_eq() to compare net-namespaces for optimization.

2008-07-20T05:34:43Z

Without CONFIG_NET_NS, namespace is always &init_net. Compiler will be able to omit namespace comparisons with this patch. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

econet: Use sock_orphan() instead of open-coded (and buggy) variant.

2008-06-17T10:01:47Z

It doesn't grab the sk_callback_lock, it doesn't NULL out the sk->sk_sleep waitqueue pointer, etc. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Allow netdevices to specify needed head/tailroom

2008-05-13T03:48:31Z

This patch adds needed_headroom/needed_tailroom members to struct net_device and updates many places that allocate sbks to use them. Not all of them can be converted though, and I'm sure I missed some (I mostly grepped for LL_RESERVED_SPACE) Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET] NETNS: Omit net_device->nd_net without CONFIG_NET_NS.

2008-03-25T19:39:53Z

Introduce per-net_device inlines: dev_net(), dev_net_set(). Without CONFIG_NET_NS, no namespace other than &init_net exists. Let's explicitly define them to help compiler optimizations. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki

[NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer

2008-01-28T22:53:35Z

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function and timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code. The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter (98 insertions(+), 228 deletions(-)). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
