Revision 899537b73557aafbdd11050b501cf54b4f5c45af authored by Gustavo A. R. Silva on 15 April 2019, 20:57:23 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 17 April 2019, 04:01:45 UTC
arg is controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability. This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: net/atm/lec.c:715 lec_mcast_attach() warn: potential spectre issue 'dev_lec' [r] (local cap) Fix this by sanitizing arg before using it to index dev_lec. Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].
