    Subject[PATCH] [49/106] irda: prevent integer underflow in IRLMP_ENUMDEVICES
    Date
    2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

    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.
