    net/ipv4: defensive cipso option parsing · 076ed3da

     ("Cipso: cipso_v4_optptr enter infinite loop") fixed
    a possible infinite loop in the IP option parsing of CIPSO. The fix
    assumes that ip_options_compile filtered out all zero length options and
    that no other one-byte options beside IPOPT_END and IPOPT_NOOP exist.
    While this assumption currently holds true, add explicit checks for zero
    length and invalid length options to be safe for the future. Even though
    ip_options_compile should have validated the options, the introduction of
    new one-byte options can still confuse this code without the additional
    checks.
