Subject: af_key: fix buffer overread in verify_address_len()

From: Eric Biggers <[email protected]>

commit 06b335cb51af018d5feeff5dd4fd53847ddb675a upstream.

If a message sent to a PF_KEY socket ended with one of the extensions that takes a 'struct sadb_address' but there were not enough bytes remaining in the message for the ->sa_family member of the 'struct sockaddr' which is supposed to follow, then verify_address_len() read past the end of the message, into uninitialized memory. Fix it by returning -EINVAL in this case.

This bug was found using syzkaller with KMSAN.

Reproducer:

	#include <linux/pfkeyv2.h>
	#include <sys/socket.h>
	#include <unistd.h>

	int main()
	{
		int sock = socket(PF_KEY, SOCK_RAW, PF_KEY_V2);
		char buf[24] = { 0 };
		struct sadb_msg *msg = (void *)buf;
		struct sadb_address *addr = (void *)(msg + 1);

		msg->sadb_msg_version = PF_KEY_V2;
		msg->sadb_msg_type = SADB_DELETE;
		msg->sadb_msg_len = 3;
		addr->sadb_address_len = 1;
		addr->sadb_address_exttype = SADB_EXT_ADDRESS_SRC;

		write(sock, buf, 24);
	}
