[131/143] niu: Fix kernel buffer overflow for ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu May 05 2011 - 20:38:29 EST


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

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ee9c5cfad29c8a13199962614b9b16f1c4137ac9 upstream.

niu_get_ethtool_tcam_all() assumes that its output buffer is the right
size, and warns before returning if it is not. However, the output
buffer size is under user control and ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL is an
unprivileged ethtool command. Therefore this is at least a local
denial-of-service vulnerability.

Change it to check before writing each entry and to return an error if
the buffer is already full.

Compile-tested only.
