From ac9e70b17ecd7c6e933ff2eaf7ab37429e71bf4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2016 07:53:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tcp: fix potential memory corruption MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Imagine initial value of max_skb_frags is 17, and last skb in write queue has 15 frags. Then max_skb_frags is lowered to 14 or smaller value. tcp_sendmsg() will then be allowed to add additional page frags and eventually go past MAX_SKB_FRAGS, overflowing struct skb_shared_info.
