[PATCH -mm] reiser4: remove lzo compression security hole

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Switch reiser4 to use lzo1x_decompress_safe instead of lzo1x_decompress
as otherwise it presents a security hole (lzo1x_decompress doesn't
perform bounds checking on the decompressed data).
