[PATCH 3.18 24/58] netfilter: x_tables: avoid out-of-bounds reads in xt_request_find_{match|target}

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Feb 23 2018 - 15:52:00 EST


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

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit da17c73b6eb74aad3c3c0654394635675b623b3e upstream.

It looks like syzbot found its way into netfilter territory.

Issue here is that @name comes from user space and might
not be null terminated.

Out-of-bound reads happen, KASAN is not happy.

v2 added similar fix for xt_request_find_target(),
as Florian advised.
