net: clamp ->msg_namelen instead of returning an error
If kmsg->msg_namelen > sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage) then in the original code that would lead to memory corruption in the kernel if you had audit configured. If you didn't have audit configured it was harmless. There are some programs such as beta versions of Ruby which use too large of a buffer and returning an error code breaks them. We should clamp the ->msg_namelen value instead. Fixes: 1661bf36 ("net: heap overflow in __audit_sockaddr()") Reported-by:Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by:
