Hi Greg,

Could you please apply it for 4.4-stable.
This fixes https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-9985

Why just 4.4?  What about 4.12, 4.9, and any others?

thanks,

This vulnerability is just non-issue.  You can't get it working
practically; it requires a modified hardware of the decade old ISA
sound card, and yet the system has to load / set up the module
beforehand.  We should withdraw it from CVE, IMO.


thanks,

Takashi

I think it is worth having it in 4.4, 4.9 and 4.12 also.

Hah, good luck trying to get a CVE withdrawn, people seem to love the
foolish things...
