[PATCH 3.16 199/366] tcp: don't read out-of-bounds opsize

From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>

commit 7e5a206ab686f098367b61aca989f5cdfa8114a3 upstream.

The old code reads the "opsize" variable from out-of-bounds memory (first
byte behind the segment) if a broken TCP segment ends directly after an
opcode that is neither EOL nor NOP.

The result of the read isn't used for anything, so the worst thing that
could theoretically happen is a pagefault; and since the physmap is usually
mostly contiguous, even that seems pretty unlikely.

The following C reproducer triggers the uninitialized read - however, you
can't actually see anything happen unless you put something like a
pr_warn() in tcp_parse_md5sig_option() to print the opsize.
