This CVE record has been updated after NVD enrichment efforts were completed. Enrichment data supplied by the NVD may require amendment due to these changes.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: add more sanity checks to qdisc_pkt_len_init()
One path takes care of SKB_GSO_DODGY, assuming
skb->len is bigger than hdr_len.
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() does not fully dissect TCP headers,
it only make sure it is at least 20 bytes.
It is possible for an user to provide a malicious 'GSO' packet,
total length of 80 bytes.
- 20 bytes of IPv4 header
- 60 bytes TCP header
- a small gso_size like 8
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() would declare this packet as a normal
GSO packet, because it would see 40 bytes of payload,
bigger than gso_size.
We need to make detect this case to not underflow
qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len.
