pinctrl_handle_put_dhcpv6_opts() and pinctrl_handle_dns_lookup() were not checking that a full UDP header was present before reading its udp_len field. This patch fixes the problem.
I don't think that the system as a whole, as normally installed, was exploitable. This is because pinctrl processes a packet sent to it from ovs-vswitchd. ovs-vswitchd only sends it UDPv6 DHCPv6 packets. To determine that the packets are DHCPv6, ovs-vswitchd has to see its UDP port numbers are those for DHCPv6, and it's only going to see that if an entire UDP header is present. Therefore, this part of pinctrl will only ever process a packet for which udp_len is there. I believe that pinctrl_handle_dns_lookup() is similar.
