pid-namespace: limit value of ns_last_pid to (0, max_pid)
The kernel doesn't check the pid for negative values, so if you try to write -2 to /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid, you will get a kernel panic. The crash happens because the next pid is -1, and alloc_pidmap() will try to access to a nonexistent pidmap. map = &pid_ns->pidmap[pid/BITS_PER_PAGE]; Signed-off-by: Andrew Vagin <[email protected]> Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <[email protected]> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]> Cc: Eric W.
