Subject: net: sctp, forbid negative length

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>


[ Upstream commit a4b8e71b05c27bae6bad3bdecddbc6b68a3ad8cf ]

Most of getsockopt handlers in net/sctp/socket.c check len against
sizeof some structure like:
        if (len < sizeof(int))
                return -EINVAL;

On the first look, the check seems to be correct. But since len is int
and sizeof returns size_t, int gets promoted to unsigned size_t too. So
the test returns false for negative lengths. Yes, (-1 < sizeof(long)) is
false.

Fix this in sctp by explicitly checking len < 0 before any getsockopt
handler is called.

Note that sctp_getsockopt_events already handled the negative case.
Since we added the < 0 check elsewhere, this one can be removed.

If not checked, this is the result:
