[PATCH net] ipv6: sctp: clone options to avoid use after free

From: Eric Dumazet
Date: Wed Dec 09 2015 - 10:25:20 EST


From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

SCTP is lacking proper np->opt cloning at accept() time.

TCP and DCCP use ipv6_dup_options() helper, do the same
in SCTP.

We might later factorize this code in a common helper to avoid
future mistakes.
