From 51fb60eb162ab84c5edf2ae9c63cf0b878e5547e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Paul=20H=C3=BCber?= Date: Sun, 26 Feb 2017 17:58:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] l2tp: avoid use-after-free caused by l2tp_ip_backlog_recv MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit l2tp_ip_backlog_recv may not return -1 if the packet gets dropped. The return value is passed up to ip_local_deliver_finish, which treats negative values as an IP protocol number for resubmission. Signed-off-by: Paul Hüber Signed-off-by: David S.
