Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix AUXV size calculation when ELF_HWCAP2 is defined<br /> <br /> create_elf_fdpic_tables() does not correctly account the space for the<br /> AUX vector when an architecture has ELF_HWCAP2 defined. Prior to the<br /> commit 10e29251be0e ("binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix /proc//auxv") it<br /> resulted in the last entry of the AUX vector being set to zero, but with<br /> that change it results in a kernel BUG.<br /> <br /> Fix that by adding one to the number of AUXV entries (nitems) when<br /> ELF_HWCAP2 is defined.
