+Subject: net: avoid signed overflows for SO_{SND|RCV}BUFFORCE
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/b98b0bc8c431e3ceb4b26b0dfc8db509518fb290
+Bug-Debian-Security: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-9793
+
+CAP_NET_ADMIN users should not be allowed to set negative
+sk_sndbuf or sk_rcvbuf values, as it can lead to various memory
+corruptions, crashes, OOM...
+
+Note that before commit 82981930125a ("net: cleanups in
+sock_setsockopt()"), the bug was even more serious, since SO_SNDBUF
+and SO_RCVBUF were vulnerable.
+
+This needs to be backported to all known linux kernels.
+
+Again, many thanks to syzkaller team for discovering this gem.
