CVE-2011-2182
fs/partitions: Kernel heap overflow via corrupted LDM partition
tables. Different issue than CVE-2011-1017
Fixes for this issue have hit lucid and later via mainline and
stable. Following this email is a patch for hardy, lucid/fsl-imx51,
maverick/ti-omap4, and natty/ti-omap4; this is a simple cherry pick from
the mainline fix. Note we are including lucid/fsl-imx51 as there is
potential for a local root exploit from this issue.
Proposing for hardy, lucid/fsl-imx51, maverick/ti-omap4, and natty/ti-omap4.
