Subject: xfrm: Fix stack-out-of-bounds read on socket policy lookup.

From: Steffen Klassert <[email protected]>

commit ddc47e4404b58f03e98345398fb12d38fe291512 upstream.

When we do tunnel or beet mode, we pass saddr and daddr from the template to xfrm_state_find(), this is ok. On transport mode, we pass the addresses from the flowi, assuming that the IP addresses (and address family) don't change during transformation. This assumption is wrong in the IPv4 mapped IPv6 case, packet is IPv4 and template is IPv6.

Fix this by catching address family missmatches of the policy and the flow already before we do the lookup.
