David, please do git revert 4f7df337fe79bba1e4c2d525525d63b5ba186bbd
I'm an idiot. All rationale in the commit would be correct if reading "nla_len" didn't require memory access. But it does. return rem >= (int)sizeof(*nla) && nla->nla_len >= sizeof(*nla) && nla->nla_len <= remaining; Those logical ands ensure that memory access is not done if "rem" is small enough to even fetch ->nla_len. Maybe someone could vouch that other checks prevent this kind of situation from happening but not me. How very embarrassing. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobri...@gmail.com>
