[PATCH 3.5 36/78] net: flow_dissector: fail on evil iph->ihl

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Mon Nov 25 2013 - 08:23:03 EST


3.5.7.26 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6f092343855a71e03b8d209815d8c45bf3a27fcd upstream.

We don't validate iph->ihl which may lead a dead loop if we meet a IPIP
skb whose iph->ihl is zero. Fix this by failing immediately when iph->ihl
is evil (less than 5).

This issue were introduced by commit ec5efe7946280d1e84603389a1030ccec0a767ae
(rps: support IPIP encapsulation).
