Subject: [PATCH] wext: Fix IWENCODEEXT security permissions
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a417016d1a07e6df0621dbb2926da82642eca823;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

[PATCH] wext: Fix IWENCODEEXT security permissions

	Check the permissions when user-space try to read the
encryption parameters via SIOCGIWENCODEEXT. This is trivial and
probably should go in 2.6.17...
	Bug was found by Brian Eaton <eaton.lists@gmail.com>, thanks !
