From 328fc47ea0bcc27d9afa69c3ad6e52431cadd76c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2008 16:08:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] sctp: correct bounds check in sctp_setsockopt_auth_key The bonds check to prevent buffer overlflow was not exactly right. It still allowed overflow of up to 8 bytes which is sizeof(struct sctp_authkey). Since optlen is already checked against the size of that struct, we are guaranteed not to cause interger overflow either. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S.
