Not necessarily. If panic_on_oops is set (and it usually is in
"production" setups), it'll crash the box there.
Maybe they're getting what they asked for?

Agreed, looks like you only hit an error if the read attempts to go out
of bounds. In principle that shouldn't ever happen (and I haven't seen
any reports of it).
Still...I agree with Dros that it's better to handle this without
oopsing if we can. We can return an error from either of those
functions. A sane error and a WARN_ONCE would be better here.
OK, OK, OK.
There are also some more BUGs that could use looking into if anyone
wants to.

rpc: remove some BUG()s
It would be kinder to WARN() and recover in several spots here instead
of BUG()ing.
Also, it looks like the read_u32_from_xdr_buf() call could actually
fail, though it might require a broken (or malicious) client, so convert
that to just an error return.

What about the following BUG() at net/sunrpc/svc_xprt.c:1058:
/*
* Remove a dead transport
*/
static void svc_delete_xprt(struct svc_xprt *xprt)
{
struct svc_serv *serv = xprt->xpt_server;
struct svc_deferred_req *dr;
/* Only do this once */
if (test_and_set_bit(XPT_DEAD, &xprt->xpt_flags))
BUG();
dprintk("svc: svc_delete_xprt(%p)\n", xprt);

while ((dr = svc_deferred_dequeue(xprt)) != NULL)
kfree(dr);
call_xpt_users(xprt);
svc_xprt_put(xprt);
}
I'm suspicious about that comment above the _if_ condition: /* Only do
this once */
Would it help to replace that BUG with a WARN_ON_ONCE?
Thanks
