This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled SUNRPC: Prevent kernel stack corruption on long values of to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.yuz extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.yuz tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 05b31fd6318a07f2bccac8b8be3b300543c0c255 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2012 00:01:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: Prevent kernel stack corruption on long values of flush commit 212ba90696ab4884e2025b0b13726d67aadc2cd4 upstream. The buffer size in read_flush() is too small for the longest possible values for it.
