[PATCHv2] dccp: Do not send Dccp-Sync after received sequence-invalid

[Wei Yongjun <yjwei@cn.fujitsu.com>]

RFC4340 said:

7.5.4.  Handling Sequence-Invalid Packets

o  A sequence-invalid DCCP-Reset packet MUST elicit a DCCP-Sync
   packet in response (subject to a possible rate limit).  This
   response packet MUST use a new Sequence Number, and thus will
   increase GSS; GSR will not change, however, since the received
   packet was sequence-invalid.  The response packet's
   Acknowledgement Number MUST equal GSR.

But reponse to a sequence-invalid DCCP-Reset with acknowledgement
number equal to GSR will help to attack for sequence number. The
attack method as the following:

Endpoint A                                 Endpoint B
                                           (OPEN)
Dccp-Request      ---------------->
(SEQ=X)
                  <----------------        SYNC
                                           (SEQ=GSS+1, ACK=X)
Dccp-Reset        ---------------->
(SEQ=X+1, ACK=GSS+1)
                  <----------------        SYNC
                                           (SEQ=GSS+2, ACK=GSR)

X = invalid sequence number
GSS = sequence number of endpoint B
GSR = sequence number of endpoint A

After we received SYNC from endpoint B, we known the sequence number
of both side.

The best way to avoid this is not send Dccp-Sync after received
sequence-invalid Dccp-Reset.
