Subject: [PATCH] scsi: fix a double-fetch bug in sg_write
Date: Tue, 25 Dec 2018 14:24:26 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181225202427.69476-1-kjlu@umn.edu> (raw)
"opcode" has been copied in from user space and checked. We should not
copy it in again, which may have been modified by malicous
multi-threading user programs through race conditions. The fix uses the
opcode fetched in the first copy.
