[PATCH] net: can: prevent potential access of uninitialized value in canfd_rcv()

From: Anant Thazhemadam
Date: Sun Nov 01 2020 - 22:17:26 EST


In canfd_rcv(), cfd->len is uninitialized when skb->len = 0, and this
uninitialized cfd->len is accessed nonetheless by pr_warn_once().

Fix this uninitialized variable access by checking cfd->len's validity
condition (cfd->len > CANFD_MAX_DLEN) separately after the skb->len's
condition is checked, and appropriately modify the log messages that
are generated as well.
In case either of the required conditions fail, the skb is freed and
NET_RX_DROP is returned, same as before.
