Summary
arm64: csum: Fix OoB access in IP checksum code for negative lengths
Details

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

arm64: csum: Fix OoB access in IP checksum code for negative lengths

Although commit c2c24edb1d9c ("arm64: csum: Fix pathological zero-length calls") added an early return for zero-length input, syzkaller has popped up with an example of a negative length which causes an undefined shift and an out-of-bounds read:

Extend the early return to reject negative lengths as well, aligning our implementation with the generic code in lib/checksum.c
