From b9e9dead05b19e7f52c9aa00cd3a5b7ac4fcacf4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Thu, 19 May 2005 12:39:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IPSEC]: Fixed alg_key_len usage in attach_one_algo The variable alg_key_len is in bits and not bytes. The function attach_one_algo is currently using it as if it were in bytes. This causes it to read memory which may not be there. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
