[SRU][F/J/L/M][PATCH 1/1] netfilter: nfnetlink_osf: avoid OOB read

From: Wander Lairson Costa <wander at redhat.com>

The opt_num field is controlled by user mode and is not currently
validated inside the kernel. An attacker can take advantage of this to
trigger an OOB read and potentially leak information.

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in nf_osf_match_one+0xbed/0xd10 net/netfilter/nfnetlink_osf.c:88
Read of size 2 at addr ffff88804bc64272 by task poc/6431

CPU: 1 PID: 6431 Comm: poc Not tainted 6.0.0-rc4 #1
Call Trace:

 [..]

Also add validation to genre, subtype and version fields.
