irda: prevent integer underflow in IRLMP_ENUMDEVICES

2011-04-30T14:53:35Z

commit fdac1e0697356ac212259f2147aa60c72e334861 upstream. If the user-provided len is less than the expected offset, the IRLMP_ENUMDEVICES getsockopt will do a copy_to_user() with a very large size value. While this isn't be a security issue on x86 because it will get caught by the access_ok() check, it may leak large amounts of kernel heap on other architectures. In any event, this patch fixes it.

irda: prevent heap corruption on invalid nickname

2011-04-30T14:53:26Z

commit d50e7e3604778bfc2dc40f440e0742dbae399d54 upstream. Invalid nicknames containing only spaces will result in an underflow in a memcpy size calculation, subsequently destroying the heap and panicking. v2 also catches the case where the provided nickname is longer than the buffer size, which can result in controllable heap corruption.

irda: validate peer name and attribute lengths

2011-04-30T14:53:26Z

commit d370af0ef7951188daeb15bae75db7ba57c67846 upstream. Length fields provided by a peer for names and attributes may be longer than the destination array sizes. Validate lengths to prevent stack buffer overflows. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

irda: Fix heap memory corruption in iriap.c

2010-12-09T21:24:15Z

commit 37f9fc452d138dfc4da2ee1ce5ae85094efc3606 upstream. While parsing the GetValuebyClass command frame, we could potentially write passed the skb->data pointer. Reported-by: Ilja Van Sprundel Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

irda: off by one

2010-09-20T20:03:20Z

commit cf9b94f88bdbe8a02015fc30d7c232b2d262d4ad upstream. This is an off by one. We would go past the end when we NUL terminate the "value" string at end of the function. The "value" buffer is allocated in irlan_client_parse_response() or irlan_provider_parse_command(). CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

tty: Ldisc revamp

2008-07-21T00:12:34Z

Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

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

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
