[NETFILTER]: Missed and reordered checks in {arp,ip,ip6}_tables
There is a number of issues in parsing user-provided table in translate_table(). Malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN may crash system by passing special-crafted table to the *_tables. The first issue is that mark_source_chains() function is called before entry content checks. In case of standard target, mark_source_chains() function uses t->verdict field in order to determine new position. But the check, that this field leads no further, than the table end, is in check_entry(), which is called later, than mark_source_chains(). The second issue, that there is no check that target_offset points inside entry. If so, *_ITERATE_MATCH macro will follow further, than the entry ends. As a result, we'll have oops or memory disclosure. And the third issue, that there is no check that the target is completely inside entry. Results are the same, as in previous issue.
