[ Upstream commitef82bcfa67] In sctp_setsockopt_bindx()/__sctp_setsockopt_connectx(), it allocates memory with addrs_size which is passed from userspace. We used flag GFP_USER to put some more restrictions on it in Commitcacc062152("sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc"). However, since Commitc981f254cc("sctp: use vmemdup_user() rather than badly open-coding memdup_user()"), vmemdup_user() has been used, which doesn't check GFP_USER flag when goes to vmalloc_*(). So when addrs_size is a huge value, it could exhaust memory and even trigger oom killer. This patch is to use memdup_user() instead, in which GFP_USER would work to limit the memory allocation with a huge addrs_size. Note we can't fix it by limiting 'addrs_size', as there's no demand for it from RFC.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
