Subject: [PATCH] [27/98] ARM: 6891/1: prevent heap corruption in OABI semtimedop
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2011 17:35:19 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110727003519.71E532403FF@tassilo.jf.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110726534.972201586@firstfloor.org>

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Dan Rosenberg <drosenberg@vsecurity.com>

commit 0f22072ab50cac7983f9660d33974b45184da4f9 upstream.

When CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT is set, the wrapper for semtimedop does not
bound the nsops argument.  A sufficiently large value will cause an
integer overflow in allocation size, followed by copying too much data
into the allocated buffer.  Fix this by restricting nsops to SEMOPM.
Untested.
