From 6b6707a50c7598a83820077393f8823ab791abf8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Chapman Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2008 12:35:00 -0700 Subject: l2tp: Fix potential memory corruption in pppol2tp_recvmsg() This patch fixes a potential memory corruption in pppol2tp_recvmsg(). If skb->len is bigger than the caller's buffer length, memcpy_toiovec() will go into unintialized data on the kernel heap, interpret it as an iovec and start modifying memory. The fix is to change the memcpy_toiovec() call to skb_copy_datagram_iovec() so that paged packets (rare for PPPOL2TP) are handled properly. Also check that the caller's buffer is big enough for the data and set the MSG_TRUNC flag if it is not so. Reported-by: Ilja Signed-off-by: James Chapman Signed-off-by: David S.
