ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)`\nafter either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet\ndevice or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at\n`skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb->head` and `skb->data`.\n\nMake these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an\nEthernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at\nleast a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.\n\nSuggested-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>\nTested-by: Ren Wei <enjou1224z@gmail.com>\nSigned-off-by: Zhengchuan Liang
