[PATCH 09/17] [NETFILTER]: Fix crash in ip_nat_pptp

From: Chris Wright
Date: Thu Jan 12 2006 - 22:18:46 EST


-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

When an inbound PPTP_IN_CALL_REQUEST packet is received the
PPTP NAT helper uses a NULL pointer in pointer arithmentic to
calculate the offset in the packet which needs to be mangled
and corrupts random memory or crashes.
