From: Andrew Vagin Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 21:09:12 +0000 (-0700) Subject: pid-namespace: limit value of ns_last_pid to (0, max_pid) X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=579035dc5ddd6d48fd8529e7358b03d911ab9d8a;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git pid-namespace: limit value of ns_last_pid to (0, max_pid) The kernel doesn't check the pid for negative values, so if you try to write -2 to /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid, you will get a kernel panic. The crash happens because the next pid is -1, and alloc_pidmap() will try to access to a nonexistent pidmap. map = &pid_ns->pidmap[pid/BITS_PER_PAGE]; Signed-off-by: Andrew Vagin Acked-by: Cyrill Gorcunov Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov Cc: Eric W.
