Hi Will,
Given this is for -stable maintainers only, I'd suggest:
1) Specify what -stable kernel versions this patch applies to. Explain that this problem is gone since what kernel version.
2) Maybe clarify that this is only for stable in the patch subject, e.g. [PATCH -stable v3] netfilter: nat: add a range check for l3/l4
Otherwise, this -stable maintainers might not identify this patch as something that is targetted to them.
Thanks.

The indexes to the nf_nat_l[34]protos arrays come from userspace. So check the tuple's family, e.g. l3num, when creating the conntrack in order to prevent an OOB memory access during setup. Here is an example kernel panic on 4.14.180 when userspace passes in an index greater than NFPROTO_NUMPROTO.
