CVE-2023-53296

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sctp: check send stream number after wait_for_sndbuf

This patch fixes a corner case where the asoc out stream count may change
after wait_for_sndbuf.

When the main thread in the client starts a connection, if its out stream
count is set to N while the in stream count in the server is set to N – 2,
another thread in the client keeps sending the msgs with stream number
N – 1, and waits for sndbuf before processing INIT_ACK.

However, after processing INIT_ACK, the out stream count in the client is
shrunk to N – 2, the same to the in stream count in the server. The crash
occurs when the thread waiting for sndbuf is awake and sends the msg in a
non-existing stream(N – 1), the call trace is as below:

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000038-0x000000000000003f]

The fix is to add an unlikely check for the send stream number after the
thread wakes up from the wait_for_sndbuf.
