[patch 07/23] [PATCH] [NETFILTER] PPTP helper: Fix endianness bug in GRE key / CallID NAT

From: Chris Wright
Date: Tue Nov 22 2005 - 16:08:30 EST


-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

This endianness bug slipped through while changing the 'gre.key' field in
the conntrack tuple from 32bit to 16bit.

None of my tests caught the problem, since the linux pptp client always has
'0' as call id / gre key. Only windows clients actually trigger the bug.
