In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sparc: fix accurate exception reporting in copy{fromto}_user for Niagara
The referenced commit introduced exception handlers on user-space memory references in copyfromuser and copytouser. These handlers return from the respective function and calculate the remaining bytes left to copy using the current register contents. This commit fixes a couple of bad calculations and a broken epilogue in the exception handlers. This will prevent crashes and ensure correct return values of copyfromuser and copytouser in the faulting case. The behaviour of memcpy stays unchanged.
