netfilter: nfnetlink_cthelper: fix OOB read in nfnl_cthelper_dump_table()
[ Upstream commit 6dcee8496d53165b2d8a5909b3050b62ae71fe89 ]
nfnl_cthelper_dump_table() has a 'goto restart' that jumps to a label
inside the for loop body. When the "last" helper saved in cb->args[1]
is deleted between dump rounds, every entry fails the (cur != last)
check, so cb->args[1] is never cleared. The for loop finishes with
cb->args[0] == nf_ct_helper_hsize, and the 'goto restart' jumps back
into the loop body bypassing the bounds check, causing an 8-byte
out-of-bounds read on nf_ct_helper_hash[nf_ct_helper_hsize].
The 'goto restart' block was meant to re-traverse the current bucket
when "last" is no longer found, but it was placed after the for loop
instead of inside it. Move the block into the for loop body so that
the restart only occurs while cb->args[0] is still within bounds.
