Subject: batman-adv: reject oversized global TT response buffers
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a359bf5c61d52e7f09754108309d637532164a6;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

batman-adv: reject oversized global TT response buffers

batadv_tt_prepare_tvlv_global_data() builds the allocation length for a
global TT response in 16-bit temporaries. When a remote originator
advertises a large enough global TT, the TT payload length plus the VLAN
header offset can exceed 65535 and wrap before kmalloc().

The full-table response path still uses the original TT payload length when
it fills tt_change, so the wrapped allocation is too small and
batadv_tt_prepare_tvlv_global_data() writes past the end of the heap object
before the later packet-size check runs.

Fix this by rejecting TT responses whose TVLV value length cannot fit in
the 16-bit TVLV payload length field.
