Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
batman-adv: tt: fix TOCTOU race for reported vlans<br />
<br />
The local TT based TVLV is generated by first checking the number of VLANs<br />
which have at least one TT entry. A new buffer with the correct size for<br />
the VLANs is then allocated. Only then, the list of VLANs s used to fill<br />
the VLAN entries in the buffer. During this time, the meshif_vlan_list_lock<br />
is held. But the actual number of TT entries of each VLAN can still<br />
increase during this time - just not the number of VLANs in the list.<br />
<br />
But the prefilter used in the buffer size calculation might still cause an<br />
increase of the number of VLANs which need to be stored. Simply because a<br />
VLAN might now suddenly have at least one entry when it had none in the<br />
pre-alloc check - and then needs to occupy space which was not allocated.<br />
<br />
It is better to overestimate the buffer size at the beginning and then fill<br />
the buffer only with the VLANs which are not empty.
