** Description changed:

- An unprivileged user can send a netlink message resulting in an out-of-
- bounds access of the sock_diag_handlers[] array which, in turn, allows
- userland to take over control while in kernel mode.
+ Array index error in the __sock_diag_rcv_msg function in
+ net/core/sock_diag.c in the Linux kernel before 3.7.10 allows local
+ users to gain privileges via a large family value in a Netlink message.
