Description : In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: widen NAT rewrite delta to s32 in sip_help_tcp()
sip_help_tcp() stores the size change of each NAT-rewritten SIP message in s16 diff and accumulates it in s16 tdiff, but a single message can grow by more than S16_MAX while the packet stays under the 65535 enlarge_skb() limit: nf_nat_sip() rewrites every matching URI, and a long Contact list expands the message by tens of kilobytes.
diff then wraps, and "datalen = datalen + diff - msglen" yields a huge unsigned datalen, so the next iteration's ct_sip_get_header() reads past the linearized skb tail.
Widen diff, tdiff and the seq_adjust hook to s32.
