    sendmmsg/sendmsg: fix unsafe user pointer access · bc909d9d
    Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于
    Dereferencing a user pointer directly from kernel-space without going
    through the copy_from_user family of functions is a bad idea. Two of
    such usages can be found in the sendmsg code path called from sendmmsg,
    added by
    
    commit c71d8ebe upstream.
    commit 5b47b8038f183b44d2d8ff1c7d11a5c1be706b34 in the 3.0-stable tree.
    
    Usages are performed through memcmp() and memcpy() directly. Fix those
    by using the already copied msg_sys structure instead of the __user *msg
    structure. Note that msg_sys can be set to NULL by verify_compat_iovec()
    or verify_iovec(), which requires additional NULL pointer checks.
