staging: vt6655: buffer overflow in ioctl

2014-09-19T22:32:20+00:00

->u.generic_elem.len is a user controlled number between 0-255.  We
should limit it to avoid memory corruption.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Highlights:

   1) Steady transitioning of the BPF instructure to a generic spot so
      all kernel subsystems can make use of it, from Alexei Starovoitov.

   2) SFC driver supports busy polling, from Alexandre Rames.

   3) Take advantage of hash table in UDP multicast delivery, from David
      Held.

   4) Lighten locking, in particular by getting rid of the LRU lists, in
      inet frag handling.  From Florian Westphal.

   5) Add support for various RFC6458 control messages in SCTP, from
      Geir Ola Vaagland.

   6) Allow to filter bridge forwarding database dumps by device, from
      Jamal Hadi Salim.

   7) virtio-net also now supports busy polling, from Jason Wang.

   8) Some low level optimization tweaks in pktgen from Jesper Dangaard
      Brouer.

   9) Add support for ipv6 address generation modes, so that userland
      can have some input into the process.  From Jiri Pirko.

  10) Consolidate common TCP connection request code in ipv4 and ipv6,
      from Octavian Purdila.

  11) New ARP packet logger in netfilter, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

  12) Generic resizable RCU hash table, with intial users in netlink and
      nftables.  From Thomas Graf.

  13) Maintain a name assignment type so that userspace can see where a
      network device name came from (enumerated by kernel, assigned
      explicitly by userspace, etc.) From Tom Gundersen.

  14) Automatic flow label generation on transmit in ipv6, from Tom
      Herbert.

  15) New packet timestamping facilities from Willem de Bruijn, meant to
      assist in measuring latencies going into/out-of the packet
      scheduler, latency from TCP data transmission to ACK, etc"

Merge tag 'staging-3.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the big pull request for the staging driver tree for 3.17-rc1.

  Lots of things in here, over 2000 patches, but the best part is this:
   1480 files changed, 39070 insertions(+), 254659 deletions(-)

  Thanks to the great work of Kristina Martšenko, 14 different staging
  drivers have been removed from the tree as they were obsolete and no
  one was willing to work on cleaning them up.  Other than the driver
  removals, loads of cleanups are in here (comedi, lustre, etc.) as well
  as the usual IIO driver updates and additions.

  All of this has been in the linux-next tree for a while"
