From e17df688f7064dae1417ce425dd1e4b71d24d63b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Tue, 2 May 2006 23:23:07 +0200 Subject: [NETFILTER] SCTP conntrack: fix infinite loop fix infinite loop in the SCTP-netfilter code: check SCTP chunk size to guarantee progress of for_each_sctp_chunk(). (all other uses of for_each_sctp_chunk() are preceded by do_basic_checks(), so this fix should be complete.)
