[PATCH nf] netfilter/xt_sctp: validate the flag_info count

From: Wander Lairson Costa
Date: Mon Aug 28 2023 - 18:15:00 EST


sctp_mt_check doesn't validate the flag_count field. An attacker can
take advantage of that to trigger a OOB read and leak memory
information.

Add the field validation in the checkentry function.

Fixes: 2e4e6a17af35 ("[NETFILTER] x_tables: Abstraction layer for {ip,ip6,arp}_tables")
