From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@xxxxxxxxx> commit b6ffe7671b24689c09faa5675dd58f93758a97ae upstream. In one of the fallbacks that SCTP has for identifying an association for an incoming packet, it looks for AddIp chunk (from ASCONF) and take a peek. Thing is, at this stage nothing was validating that the chunk actually had enough content for that, allowing the peek to happen over uninitialized memory. Similar check already exists in actual asconf handling in sctp_verify_asconf(). Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
