Subject: [request for stable inclusion 3.10 and 3.12] Fix CVE-2014-8173
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2015 07:49:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426837744-203791-1-git-send-email-long.wanglong@huawei.com> (raw)

Hi Greg and Jiri,

The following patch commit ee53664bda169f519ce3c6a22d378f0b946c8178

mm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support

fix CVE-2014-8173. I wish you could merge this fix into stable 3.10
and 3.12, because the linux kernel before 3.13 on NUMA systems 
is affected by it.
