Author: bz Date: Mon Nov 23 11:52:20 2009 New Revision: 199712 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/199712 Log: MF7 r199330: Note: this change was never in head; thus directly merged from stable/7. As we pass the 'offset' unvalidated to vn_rdwr() make sure that it is unsigned rather than possibly set to something negative by a malicious binary. This is just the immediate fix to the problem mentioned in PR kern/80742 and by http://milw0rm.com/exploits/9206 but does not fix all possible problems imgact_pecoff has. As this feature does not work and is not compiled in by default, the security team considers this vulnerability to be of low risk to the user population and will not be issuing an advisory.
