ppp: Security Advisory - CVE-2015-3310
http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2015-3310 Buffer overflow in the rc_mksid function in plugins/radius/util.c in Paul's PPP Package (ppp) 2.4.6 and earlier, when the PID for pppd is greater than 65535, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a start accounting message to the RADIUS server. oe-core is using ppp 2.4.7, and this CVE say ppp 2.4.7 was not effected, but I found this buggy codes are same between 2.4.6 and 2.4.7, and 2.4.7 should have this issue. (From OE-Core rev: 5b549c6d73e91fdbd0b618a752d618deb1449ef9) (From OE-Core rev: 5450caccd45a2ee35ee227cdd64e66a304909a0e) Signed-off-by: Roy Li <rongqing.li@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

+ppp: Buffer overflow in radius plugin
+
+From: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;bug=782450
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport
+
+On systems with more than 65535 processes running, pppd aborts when
+sending a "start" accounting message to the RADIUS server because of a
+buffer overflow in rc_mksid.
+
+The process id is used in rc_mksid to generate a pseudo-unique string,
+assuming that the hex representation of the pid will be at most 4
+characters (FFFF). __sprintf_chk(), used when compiling with
+optimization levels greater than 0 and FORTIFY_SOURCE, detects the
+buffer overflow and makes pppd crash.
+
+The following patch fixes the problem.
+
+--- ppp-2.4.6.orig/pppd/plugins/radius/util.c
++++ ppp-2.4.6/pppd/plugins/radius/util.c
