[Bug 1185990] Re: CVE-2013-2850

 

** Description changed:

  Heap-based buffer overflow in the iscsi_add_notunderstood_response
  function in drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_parameters.c in the iSCSI
  target subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.9.4 allows remote
  attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and OOPS) or
  possibly execute arbitrary code via a long key that is not properly
  handled during construction of an error-response packet. A reproduction
  case requires patching open-iscsi to send overly large keys. Performing
  discovery in a loop will Oops the remote server. Attached is a proposed
  fix, and the patch I used in open-iscsi to trigger it. Thanks in advance
  for your cooperation in coordinating a fix for this issue,
