xfrm_user: validate XFRM_MSG_NEWAE XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL replay_window

commit 677e806da4d916052585301785d847c3b3e6186a upstream.

When a new xfrm state is created during an XFRM_MSG_NEWSA call we
validate the user supplied replay_esn to ensure that the size is valid
and to ensure that the replay_window size is within the allocated
buffer.  However later it is possible to update this replay_esn via a
XFRM_MSG_NEWAE call.  There we again validate the size of the supplied
buffer matches the existing state and if so inject the contents.  We do
not at this point check that the replay_window is within the allocated
memory.  This leads to out-of-bounds reads and writes triggered by
netlink packets.  This leads to memory corruption and the potential for
priviledge escalation.

We already attempt to validate the incoming replay information in
xfrm_new_ae() via xfrm_replay_verify_len().  This confirms that the user
is not trying to change the size of the replay state buffer which
includes the replay_esn.  It however does not check the replay_window
remains within that buffer.  Add validation of the contained
replay_window.
