Subject: [PATCH] Netfilter: Fix integer overflow in
net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c
The get.size field in the get_entries() interface is not bounded
correctly. The size is used to determine the total entry size.
The size is bounded, but can overflow and so the size checks may
not be sufficient to catch invalid size. Fix it by catching size
values that would cause overflows before calculating the size.

Unless I am wrong, this patch is not necessary, since we do a bit
later :
if (get.size == private->size)
ret = copy_entries_to_user(private->size,
t, uptr->entrytable);
else {
duprintf("get_entries: I've got %u not %u!\n",
private->size, get.size);
ret = -EAGAIN;
}
So if get.size doesnt match private->size (kernel certified), we exit
with an error. No calculation, no overflow involved.
