net: bridge: prevent too big nested attributes in br_fill_linkxstats()
After commit ff205bf8c554 ("netlink: add one debug check in nla_nest_end()") syzbot found that br_fill_linkxstats() can send corrupted netlink packets. Make sure the nested attribute size is bounded. Fixes: a60c090361ea ("bridge: netlink: export per-vlan stats") Reported-by: syzbot+a35f9259d08f907c06e6@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/6a0b0da3.050a0220.175f0c.0000.GAE@google.com/ Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <razor@blackwall.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260520114207.1394241-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
