[PATCH v1] ice: Add length check for IFLA_AF_SPEC parsing

From: Lin Ma
Date: Sun Jul 23 2023 - 03:53:17 EST


The nla_for_each_nested parsing in function ice_bridge_setlink() does
not check the length of the nested attribute. This can lead to an
out-of-attribute read and allow a malformed nlattr (e.g., length 0) to
be viewed as a 2 byte integer.

This patch adds the check based on nla_len() just as other code does,
see how bnxt_bridge_setlink (drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c)
parses IFLA_AF_SPEC: type checking plus length checking.

Fixes: b1edc14a3fbf ("ice: Implement ice_bridge_getlink and ice_bridge_setlink")
