Subject: [PATCH] drivers/scsi/mpt2sas: prevent heap overflows and unchecked reads
Date: Tue, 05 Apr 2011 12:45:59 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1302021959.2082.8.camel@dan> (raw)

At two points in handling device ioctls via /dev/mpt2ctl, user-supplied
length values are used to copy data from userspace into heap buffers
without bounds checking, allowing controllable heap corruption and
subsequently privilege escalation.

Additionally, user-supplied values are used to determine the size of a
copy_to_user() as well as the offset into the buffer to be read, with no
bounds checking, allowing users to read arbitrary kernel memory.

Compile-tested only.  Thanks to Eric Moore for suggestions on how to fix
this.
