            Bug ID: 232920
           Summary: linuxulator: linux_to_bsd_sockaddr and
                    bsd_to_linux_sockaddr are unsafe
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: brooks@FreeBSD.org

The bsd_to_linux_sockaddr() and linux_to_bsd_sockaddr() functions alter the
userspace sockaddr to convert the format between linux and BSD versions.  If
the sockaddr is shared between concurrent syscalls or the pages are unwrita=
ble
these functions will fail.

Code should either be altered to perform the transformation purely in the
kernel or at a minimum, copyout_map should be used to allocated a new locat=
ion
for the transformed sockaddr.
