  [PATCH 4.12 71/84] KEYS: DH: validate __spare field Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> - 2017-07-19 11:50 +0200

#1691206 — [PATCH 4.12 71/84] KEYS: DH: validate __spare field

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

commit 4f9dabfaf8df971f8a3b6aa324f8f817be38d538 upstream.

Syscalls must validate that their reserved arguments are zero and return
EINVAL otherwise.  Otherwise, it will be impossible to actually use them
for anything in the future because existing programs may be passing
garbage in.  This is standard practice when adding new APIs.
