commit acf673a3 fixed a user triggerable free memory scribble but in doing so replaced it with a different one that allows the user to control the data and scribble even more. sixpack_close is called by the tty layer in tty context. The tty context is protected by sp_get() and sp_put(). However network layer activity via sp_xmit() is not protected this way. We must therefore stop the queue otherwise the user gets to dump a buffer mostly of their choice into freed kernel pages. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
