From 44f9a2fdc48ccb8bb510b6e1210bf15b3e10afdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chuck Ebbert <76306.1226@compuserve.com> Date: Thu, 4 Jan 2007 12:17:44 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER]: ebtables: don't compute gap before checking struct type We cannot compute the gap until we know we have a 'struct ebt_entry' and not 'struct ebt_entries'. Failure to check can cause crash.
