kernel: sctp: validate cached peer INIT chunk length in COOKIE_ECHO processing

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol SCTP implementation. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted COOKIEECHO chunk to a listening SCTP server. The server's failure to properly validate the length of a cached peer INIT chunk within...
