netfilter: nf_conntrack: reserve two bytes for nf_ct_ext->len
commit 223b02d923ecd7c84cf9780bb3686f455d279279 upstream. "len" contains sizeof(nf_ct_ext) and size of extensions. In a worst case it can contain all extensions. Bellow you can find sizes for all types of extensions. Their sum is definitely bigger than 256. nf_ct_ext_types[0]->len = 24 nf_ct_ext_types[1]->len = 32 nf_ct_ext_types[2]->len = 24 nf_ct_ext_types[3]->len = 32 nf_ct_ext_types[4]->len = 152 nf_ct_ext_types[5]->len = 2 nf_ct_ext_types[6]->len = 16 nf_ct_ext_types[7]->len = 8 I have seen "len" up to 280 and my host has crashes w/o this patch. The right way to fix this problem is reducing the size of the ecache extension (4) and Florian is going to do this, but these changes will be quite large to be appropriate for a stable tree.
