Re: [PATCH] RDMA/siw: Bound fragmented header copies by the remaining length

siw_get_hdr() can receive an extended DDP/RDMAP header across more than
one TCP callback. The first callback may receive most of the header,
while the next one still limits the copy to hdrlen - MIN_DDP_HDR instead
of the number of missing bytes. This makes the destination move past the
end of the header and overwrite the receive state, including
fpdu_part_rcvd. A later callback can then use a negative fpdu_part_rcvd
value as a copy offset, which creates an OOB write.


Excellent finding, thank you! That must trickle down to older stable.

Use the number of header bytes already received when calculating the
next copy length.
