Subject: Patch to fix kernel bug 15678 - x25 code accesses fields beyond the
end of packet.
The current X.25 code attempts to decode fields in X.25 packets that are
not present. Here is a little patch that checks the received packet
length before attempting to decode the missing fields. It also improves
error checking for malformed packets.
