[PATCH] drm: integer overflow in drm_mode_dirtyfb_ioctl()

From: Xi Wang
Date: Wed Nov 23 2011 - 01:12:01 EST


There is a potential integer overflow in drm_mode_dirtyfb_ioctl()
if userspace passes in a large num_clips. The call to kmalloc would
allocate a small buffer, and the call to fb->funcs->dirty may result
in a memory corruption.
