[PATCH net v3] ipv6: validate extension header length before copying to cmsg

[Qi Tang <tpluszz77@gmail.com>]

ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl() builds IPV6_{HOPOPTS,DSTOPTS,RTHDR}
cmsgs (and their IPV6_2292* legacy counterparts) by trusting the
on-wire hdrlen byte (ptr[1]) when computing the put_cmsg() length.
The length was validated only at parse time (ipv6_parse_hopopts(),
etc.).  An nftables payload-write expression can rewrite hdrlen after
parsing and before the skb reaches recvmsg; the write itself is
in-bounds but put_cmsg() then reads up to ((hdrlen+1) << 3) = 2040
bytes from an 8-byte header.  nftables is reachable from an
unprivileged user namespace, so this is an unprivileged
slab-out-of-bounds read:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540
   put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540
   udpv6_recvmsg+0xca0/0x1250
   sock_recvmsg+0xdf/0x190
   ____sys_recvmsg+0x1b1/0x620

Add ipv6_get_exthdr_len() which computes the extension header length
and validates it against skb_tail_pointer(skb), returning 0 on
failure.  Extension headers are kept in the linear skb area by
pskb_may_pull() during input, so skb_tail_pointer() is the correct
bound.

Use ipv6_get_exthdr_len() at all non-AH call sites: the five
standalone cmsg blocks (HbH, 2292HbH, 2292DSTOPTS x2, 2292RTHDR)
and the three standard cases in the extension-header walk loop
(DSTOPTS, ROUTING, default).  AH retains an inline bounds check
because its length formula differs ((ptr[1]+2)<<2).

When the walk loop detects a corrupted header, return from the
function instead of continuing to process later socket options.

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - Resend as new thread (v2 was incorrectly sent as reply to v1)

Changes v1 -> v2 (Paolo Abeni):
  - Factor repeated bounds-check + put_cmsg into ipv6_get_exthdr_len()
  - Return from the function on corrupted walk-loop entry instead of
    goto + empty label

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260419150344.624673-1-tpluszz77@gmail.com/
