From ea86575eaf99a9262a969309d934318028dbfacb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2005 14:30:00 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [NETLINK]: Fix processing of fib_lookup netlink messages The receive path for fib_lookup netlink messages is lacking sanity checks for header and payload and is thus vulnerable to malformed netlink messages causing illegal memory references.
