commit ae53b5bd77719fed58086c5be60ce4f22bffe1c6 upstream.

There is a race between sctp_rcv() and sctp_accept() where we
have moved the association from the listening socket to the
accepted socket, but sctp_rcv() processing cached the old
socket and continues to use it.

The easy solution is to check for the socket mismatch once we've
grabed the socket lock.  If we hit a mis-match, that means
that were are currently holding the lock on the listening socket,
but the association is refrencing a newly accepted socket.  We need
to drop the lock on the old socket and grab the lock on the new one.

A more proper solution might be to create accepted sockets when
the new association is established, similar to TCP.  That would
eliminate the race for 1-to-1 style sockets, but it would still
existing for 1-to-many sockets where a user wished to peeloff an
association.  For now, we'll live with this easy solution as
it addresses the problem.

[ Upstream commit: 9fcb95a105758b81ef0131cd18e2db5149f13e95 ]

If FWD-TSN chunk is received with bad stream ID, the sctp will not do the
validity check, this may cause memory overflow when overwrite the TSN of
the stream ID.

The FORWARD-TSN chunk is like this:

FORWARD-TSN chunk
  Type                       = 192
  Flags                      = 0
  Length                     = 172
  NewTSN                     = 99
  Stream                     = 10000
  StreamSequence             = 0xFFFF

This patch fix this problem by discard the chunk if stream ID is not
less than MIS.

Since call to function sctp_sf_abort_violation() need paramter 'arg' with
'struct sctp_chunk' type, it will read the chunk type and chunk length from
the chunk_hdr member of chunk. But call to sctp_sf_violation_paramlen()
always with 'struct sctp_paramhdr' type's parameter, it will be passed to
sctp_sf_abort_violation(). This may cause kernel panic.

   sctp_sf_violation_paramlen()
     |-- sctp_sf_abort_violation()
        |-- sctp_make_abort_violation()

This patch fixed this problem. This patch also fix two place which called
sctp_sf_violation_paramlen() with wrong paramter type.

<title>sctp: Fix oops when INIT-ACK indicates that peer doesn't support AUTH</title>

<content type='text'>
If INIT-ACK is received with SupportedExtensions parameter which
indicates that the peer does not support AUTH, the packet will be
silently ignore, and sctp_process_init() do cleanup all of the
transports in the association.
When T1-Init timer is expires, OOPS happen while we try to choose
a different init transport.

The solution is to only clean up the non-active transports, i.e
the ones that the peer added.  However, that introduces a problem
with sctp_connectx(), because we don't mark the proper state for
the transports provided by the user.  So, we'll simply mark
user-provided transports as ACTIVE.  That will allow INIT
retransmissions to work properly in the sctp_connectx() context
and prevent the crash.

Do not enable peer features like addip and auth, if they
are administratively disabled localy.  If the peer resports
that he supports something that we don't, neither end can
use it so enabling it is pointless.  This solves a problem
when talking to a peer that has auth and addip enabled while
we do not.  Found by Andrei Pelinescu-Onciul &lt;andrei@iptel.org&gt;.

Loopback used to clobber the ip_summed filed which sctp then used
to figure out if it needed to do checksumming or not.  Now that
loopback doesn't do that any more, sctp needs to set the ip_summed

The bonds check to prevent buffer overlflow was not exactly
right.  It still allowed overflow of up to 8 bytes which is
sizeof(struct sctp_authkey).

Since optlen is already checked against the size of that struct,
we are guaranteed not to cause interger overflow either.

All of the SCTP-AUTH socket options could cause a panic
if the extension is disabled and the API is envoked.

Additionally, there were some additional assumptions that
certain pointers would always be valid which may not
always be the case.

This patch hardens the API and address all of the crash
scenarios.
