[PATCH 4.16 18/26] netfilter: x_tables: cap allocations at 512 mbyte

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Apr 25 2018 - 07:35:16 EST


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

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

From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 19926968ea86a286aa6fbea16ee3f2e7442f10f0 upstream.

Arbitrary limit, however, this still allows huge rulesets
(> 1 million rules). This helps with automated fuzzer as it prevents
oom-killer invocation.
