      netfilter: nf_conntrack: reserve two bytes for nf_ct_ext->len · 26b8ce2f
      Andrey Vagin authored
      commit 223b02d9 upstream.
      
      "len" contains sizeof(nf_ct_ext) and size of extensions. In a worst
      case it can contain all extensions. Bellow you can find sizes for all
      types of extensions. Their sum is definitely bigger than 256.
      
      nf_ct_ext_types[0]->len = 24
      nf_ct_ext_types[1]->len = 32
      nf_ct_ext_types[2]->len = 24
      nf_ct_ext_types[3]->len = 32
      nf_ct_ext_types[4]->len = 152
      nf_ct_ext_types[5]->len = 2
      nf_ct_ext_types[6]->len = 16
      nf_ct_ext_types[7]->len = 8
      
      I have seen "len" up to 280 and my host has crashes w/o this patch.
      
      The right way to fix this problem is reducing the size of the ecache
      extension (4) and Florian is going to do this, but these changes will
      be quite large to be appropriate for a stable tree.
