Subject: [PATCH] eap-ttls: Prevent crash if AVP length header field is invalid
The length field in the AVP header includes the 8 bytes of the header
itself. Not checking for that and later subtracting it causes an
integer underflow that usually triggers a crash when accessing a
NULL pointer that resulted from the failing chunk_alloc() call because
of the high value.
The attempted allocations for invalid lengths (0-7) are 0xfffffff8,
0xfffffffc, or 0x100000000 (0 on 32-bit hosts), so this doesn't result
in a buffer overflow even if the allocation succeeds.
Fixes: 79f2102cb442 ("implemented server side support for EAP-TTLS")
Fixes: CVE-2026-25075
Upstream-Status: Backport [https://download.strongswan.org/security/CVE-2026-25075/strongswan-4.5.0-6.0.4_eap_ttls_avp_len.patch]
