This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled net: compat: Update get_compat_msghdr() to match copy_msghdr_from_user() behaviour to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt9. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From f5b93a1a1361eae0e00d418e0166d6867f4c0050 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2015 16:48:13 +0000 Subject: net: compat: Update get_compat_msghdr() to match copy_msghdr_from_user() behaviour commit 91edd096e224941131f896b86838b1e59553696a upstream. Commit db31c55a6fb2 (net: clamp ->msg_namelen instead of returning an error) introduced the clamping of msg_namelen when the unsigned value was larger than sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage). This caused a msg_namelen of -1 to be valid. The native code was subsequently fixed by commit dbb490b96584 (net: socket: error on a negative msg_namelen). In addition, the native code sets msg_namelen to 0 when msg_name is NULL. This was done in commit (6a2a2b3ae075 net:socket: set msg_namelen to 0 if msg_name is passed as NULL in msghdr struct from userland) and subsequently updated by 08adb7dabd48 (fold verify_iovec() into copy_msghdr_from_user()). This patch brings the get_compat_msghdr() in line with copy_msghdr_from_user(). Fixes: db31c55a6fb2 (net: clamp ->msg_namelen instead of returning an error) Cc: David S.
