Description: Apple macOS < 10.14.5 / iOS < 12.3 XNU - Wild-read due to bad cast in stf_ioctl

# Reproduction
Tested on macOS 10.14.3:
$ clang -o stf_wild_read stf_wild_read.cc
$ ./stf_wild_read

# Explanation
SIOCSIFADDR is an ioctl that sets the address of an interface.
The stf interface ioctls are handled by the stf_ioctl function.
The crash occurs in the following case where a `struct ifreq`
is read into kernel memory and then casted to the incorrect
`struct ifaddr` type. I suspect this ioctl is not intended to
be reachable by the user, but is unintentionally exposed without
the necessary translation from `ifreq` to `ifaddr`, e.g. as it is
done in `inctl_ifaddr`.

	case SIOCSIFADDR:
		ifa = (struct ifaddr *)data;
		if (ifa == NULL) {
			error = EAFNOSUPPORT;
			break;
		}
		IFA_LOCK(ifa);
		if (ifa->ifa_addr->sa_family != AF_INET6) { // <- crash here
			IFA_UNLOCK(ifa);
			error = EAFNOSUPPORT;
			break;
		}

Note that IFA_LOCK is called on user-provided data; it appears that there
is an opportunity for memory corruption (a controlled write) when using
indirect mutexes via LCK_MTX_TAG_INDIRECT (see lck_mtx_lock_slow).
