Subject: [PATCH]: SCTP length validation.
I just checked in the following SCTP bug fix to net-2.6 and will make
sure it gets into -stable as well.
sctp: Make sure N * sizeof(union sctp_addr) does not overflow.
As noticed by Gabriel Campana, the kmalloc() length arg
passed in by sctp_getsockopt_local_addrs_old() can overflow
if ->addr_num is large enough.
Therefore, enforce an appropriate limit.
