From: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Julia Lawall pointed out that IPSET_ATTR_ETHER netlink attribute length was not checked explicitly, just for the maximum possible size. Malicious netlink clients could send shorter attribute and thus resulting a kernel read after the buffer. The patch adds the explicit length checkings.
