From 6e601a53566d84e1ffd25e7b6fe0b6894ffd79c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathias Krause Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2013 01:13:47 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] sock_diag: Fix out-of-bounds access to sock_diag_handlers[] Userland can send a netlink message requesting SOCK_DIAG_BY_FAMILY with a family greater or equal then AF_MAX -- the array size of sock_diag_handlers[]. The current code does not test for this condition therefore is vulnerable to an out-of-bound access opening doors for a privilege escalation.
