[PATCH 5.4 212/348] netfilter: nft_exthdr: check for IPv6 packet before further processing

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 12 2021 - 02:29:31 EST


From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit cdd73cc545c0fb9b1a1f7b209f4f536e7990cff4 ]

ipv6_find_hdr() does not validate that this is an IPv6 packet. Add a
sanity check for calling ipv6_find_hdr() to make sure an IPv6 packet
is passed for parsing.

Fixes: 96518518cc41 ("netfilter: add nftables")
