-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------

commit 2cb33cac622afde897aa02d3dcd9fbba8bae839e upstream.

A malicious monitor can craft an auth reply message that could cause a
NULL function pointer dereference in the client's kernel.

To prevent this, the auth_none protocol handler needs an empty
ceph_auth_client_ops->build_request() function.

CVE-2013-1059
