| |
From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr>
commit 9ee369a405c57613d7c83a3967780c3e30c52ecc upstream.
Sessions must be fully initialised before calling l2tp_session_add_to_tunnel(). Otherwise, there's a short time frame where partially initialised sessions can be accessed by external users.
Backporting Notes
l2tp_core.c: moving code that had been converted from atomic to refcount_t by an earlier change (which isn't being included in this patch series).
