eCryptfs: Sanitize write counts of /dev/ecryptfs
A malicious count value specified when writing to /dev/ecryptfs may result in a a very large kernel memory allocation. This patch peeks at the specified packet payload size, adds that to the size of the packet headers and compares the result with the write count value. The resulting maximum memory allocation size is approximately 532 bytes. Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <[email protected]> Reported-by: Sasha Levin <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]>
