From: Will Newton Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 10:59:37 +0000 (+0100) Subject: malloc: Check for integer overflow in valloc. X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=42b872e43db7c71cd40357724f1542252eb0c708;p=thirdparty%2Fglibc.git malloc: Check for integer overflow in valloc. A large bytes parameter to valloc could cause an integer overflow and corrupt allocator internals. Check the overflow does not occur before continuing with the allocation. ChangeLog: 2013-09-11 Will Newton [BZ #15856] * malloc/malloc.c (__libc_valloc): Check the value of bytes does not overflow.
