From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 21:20:27 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Samuel Ortiz <samuel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 37f9fc452d138dfc4da2ee1ce5ae85094efc3606 upstream.

While parsing the GetValuebyClass command frame, we could potentially write
passed the skb->data pointer.
