Subject: [PATCH 1/7] lib: Fix a couple of potential signed oveflows
Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2025 15:22:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250822142215.2475014-2-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250822142215.2475014-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Fix keyctl_read_alloc() to check for a potential unsigned overflow when we
allocate a buffer with an extra byte added on the end for a NUL.
Fix keyctl_dh_compute_alloc() for the same thing.
