On x86_64 longs are 64 bit and ints are 32 bit. We could pass in a very large number and the allocation would truncate the size to 32 bits and allocate a small buffer. Then when we do the copy_from_user(), it would result in a memory corruption. CC: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: James Bottomley --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
