Yet that is what doing an unconditional __dccp_basic_hdr_len() call here is going to do. The ipv6 patch has the same bug. The test probably needs to be something like: if (skb->len < (iph->ihl << 2) + sizeof(*dh) || skb->len < (iph->ihl << 2) + __dccp_basic_hdr_len(dh)) in order to make the tests safely. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dccp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
