Commit e57f61858b7c ("net: bridge: mcast: fix stale nsrcs pointer in
igmp3/mld2 report handling") introduced a small bug which would potentially
lead to accepting an MLD2 Report with a broken IPv6 header payload length
field.
The check needs to take into account the 2 bytes for the "Number of
Sources" field in the "Multicast Address Record" before reading it.
And not the size of a pointer to this field.
Fixes: e57f61858b7c ("net: bridge: mcast: fix stale nsrcs pointer in igmp3/mld2 report handling")

I'd rather be more concerned with it rejecting a valid report due to wrong size. The ptr
size would always be bigger. :)

Aiy, you're right, it's the other way round. I'll update the
commit message and send a v2 in a minute, with your Acked-by
included.

By the way, I can't verify at the moment, but I think we can drop that whole
hunk altogether since skb_header_pointer() is used and it will simply return
an error if there isn't enough data for nsrcs.

Hm, while unlikely, the IPv6 packet / header payload length might be
shorter than the frame / skb size.
And even though it wouldn't crash reading over the IPv6 packet
length, especially as skb_header_pointer() is used, I think we should
still avoid reading over the size indicated by the IPv6 header payload
length field, to stay protocol compliant.
Does that make sense?

Sure, I just thought the ipv6_mc_may_pull() call after that includes those 2 bytes as well, so
we're covered. That is, it seems to be doing the same check with the full grec size included.

Ah, okay, that's what you mean! You're right, technically the
ipv6_mc_may_pull() later would cover it, too. And it should work,
even if nsrcs were outside of the IPv6 packet and had a bogus
value. (I think.)
My brain linearly parsing the parser code would probably get a bit
confused initially, as it'd look like a bit like a bug. But the
current check for nsrcs might look confusing, too (q.e.d.).
So as you prefer, I'd be okay with both leaving that check for
consistency or removing it for brevity.
