Subject: USB: usblcd doesn't limit memory consumption during write
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.22-rc7~49^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fkernel%2Fgit%2Ftorvalds%2Flinux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=5afeb104e7901168b21aad0437fb51dc620dfdd3
USB: usblcd doesn't limit memory consumption during write
usblcd currently has no way to limit memory consumption by fast writers.
This is a security problem, as it allows users with write access to this
device to drive the system into oom despite resource limits.
Here's the fix taken from the modern skeleton driver.
