Subject[PATCH 1/3] modpost: add array range check to sec_name()
Date
The section index is always positive, so the argunent, secindex, should
be unsigned.

Also, inserted the array range check.

If sym->st_shndx is a special section index (between SHN_LORESERVE and
SHN_HIRESERVE), there is no corresponding section header.

For example, if a symbol specifies an absolute value, sym->st_shndx is
SHN_ABS (=0xfff1).

The current users do not cause the out-of-range access of
info->sechddrs[], but it is better to avoid such a pitfall.
