| |
If we call groups_alloc() with invalid values then it's might lead to memory corruption. For example, with a negative value then we might not allocate enough for sizeof(struct group_info).
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> --- v2: In v1, I changed groups_alloc(). The other places which call groups_alloc() check the value before calling. Eric wanted that, either have all the callers check, or all the callers rely on groups_alloc(). In the end, Bruce Fields said adding the check here was probably reasonable.
