From bcd620757d3a4ae78ef0ca41adb5d9e400ed92b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Morris Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2006 15:08:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV6]: fix lockup via /proc/net/ip6_flowlabel There's a bug in the seqfile handling for /proc/net/ip6_flowlabel, where, after finding a flowlabel, the code will loop forever not finding any further flowlabels, first traversing the rest of the hash bucket then just looping. This patch fixes the problem by breaking after the hash bucket has been traversed. Note that this bug can cause lockups and oopses, and is trivially invoked by an unpriveleged user.
