Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] lib/rte_rib6: fix stack buffer overflow
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2021 14:18:32 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210616181833.356159-1-ohilyard@iol.unh.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210616160730.348523-1-ohilyard@iol.unh.edu>

From: Owen Hilyard <ohilyard@iol.unh.edu>

ASAN found a stack buffer overflow in lib/rib/rte_rib6.c:get_dir.
The fix for the stack buffer overflow was to make sure depth
was always < 128, since when depth = 128 it caused the index
into the ip address to be 16, which read off the end of the array.

While trying to solve the buffer overflow, I noticed that a few
changes could be made to remove the for loop entirely.

Fixes: f7e861e21c ("rib: support IPv6")
