udhcp: Avoid leaking uninitialized/stale data
I noticed a commit in connman:
"gdhcp: Avoid leaking stack data via unitiialized variable" [1]
Since gdhcp is just BusyBox udhcp with the serial numbers filed off, I
checked if BusyBox udhcp has a related issue.
The issue is that the get_option logic assumes any data within the
memory area of the buffer is "valid". This reduces the complexity of the
function at the cost of reading past the end of the actually received
data in the case of specially crafted packets. This is not a problem
for the udhcp_recv_kernel_packet data path as the entire memory
area is zeroed. However, d4/d6_recv_raw_packet does not zero the
memory.
Note that a related commit [2] is not required as we are zeroing
any data that can be read by the get_option function.
