Subject[PATCH 4.4 005/103] char: lp: fix possible integer overflow in lp_setup()
Date
4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu>

commit 3e21f4af170bebf47c187c1ff8bf155583c9f3b1 upstream.

The lp_setup() code doesn't apply any bounds checking when passing
"lp=none", and only in this case, resulting in an overflow of the
parport_nr[] array. All versions in Git history are affected.
