Subject: Re: Crypto Fixes for 2.6.27
Date: Sat, 23 Aug 2008 01:11:02 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080822151102.GA678@gondor.apana.org.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080813121620.GA23142@gondor.apana.org.au>

Hi Linus:

This push fixes a serious bug that was introduced in 2.6.25.  It
causes IPsec users that employ MAC algorithms with a length longer
than 16 bytes to crash.  The standard SHA1 algorithm is exactly 16
bytes long, so this only applies to those using longer algorithms
such as SHA256.

or
