In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: x_tables: guard option walkers against 1-byte tail reads
When the last byte of options is a non-single-byte option kind, walkers
that advance with i += op[i + 1] ? : 1 can read op[i + 1] past the end
of the option area.
Add an explicit i == optlen - 1 check before dereferencing op[i + 1]
in xt_tcpudp and xt_dccp option walkers.
