[PATCH] xfrm: policy: check policy direction value

From: Vladis Dronov
Date: Wed Aug 02 2017 - 13:51:11 EST


The 'dir' parameter in xfrm_migrate() is a user-controlled byte which is used
as an array index. This can lead to an out-of-bound access, kernel lockup and
DoS. Add a check for the 'dir' value.

This fixes CVE-2017-11600.
