[PATCH 4.9 083/245] netfilter: nft_exthdr: check for IPv6 packet before further processing

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-07-19 15:13:46
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

[ 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.
