Bruce Fields Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2013 18:11:13 +0000 (-0400) Subject: nfsd4: reject "negative" acl lengths X-Git-Tag: v3.4.39~35 X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=49e67244a577002dcb37bbfdb0698a5306e769ec;p=karo-tx-linux.git nfsd4: reject "negative" acl lengths commit 64a817cfbded8674f345d1117b117f942a351a69 upstream. Since we only enforce an upper bound, not a lower bound, a "negative" length can get through here. The symptom seen was a warning when we attempt to a kmalloc with an excessive size.
