[PATCH net] net: rose: reject truncated CLEAR_REQUEST frames in state machines

[Mashiro Chen]

All five ROSE state machines (states 1-5) handle ROSE_CLEAR_REQUEST
by reading the cause and diagnostic bytes directly from skb->data[3]
and skb->data[4] without verifying that the frame is long enough:

  rose_disconnect(sk, ..., skb->data[3], skb->data[4]);

The entry-point check in rose_route_frame() only enforces
ROSE_MIN_LEN (3 bytes), so a remote peer on a ROSE network can
send a syntactically valid but truncated CLEAR_REQUEST (3 or 4
bytes) while a connection is open in any state.  Processing such a
frame causes a one- or two-byte out-of-bounds read past the skb
data, leaking uninitialized heap content as the cause/diagnostic
values returned to user space via getsockopt(ROSE_GETCAUSE).

Add a single length check at the rose_process_rx_frame() dispatch
point, before any state machine is entered, to drop frames that
carry the CLEAR_REQUEST type code but are too short to contain the
required cause and diagnostic fields.
