Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: avoid potential underflow in qdisc_pkt_len_init() with UFO
After commit 7c6d2ecbda83 ("net: be more gentle about silly gso
requests coming from user") virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() had sanity check
to detect malicious attempts from user space to cook a bad GSO packet.
Then commit cf9acc90c80ec ("net: virtio_net_hdr_to_skb: count
transport header in UFO") while fixing one issue, allowed user space
to cook a GSO packet with the following characteristic :
IPv4 SKB_GSO_UDP, gso_size=3, skb->len = 28.
When this packet arrives in qdisc_pkt_len_init(), we end up
with hdr_len = 28 (IPv4 header + UDP header), matching skb->len
Then the following sets gso_segs to 0 :
gso_segs = DIV_ROUND_UP(skb->len - hdr_len,
shinfo->gso_size);
Then later we set qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len to back to zero :/
qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len += (gso_segs - 1) * hdr_len;
This leads to the following crash in fq_codel [1]
qdisc_pkt_len_init() is best effort, we only want an estimation
of the bytes sent on the wire, not crashing the kernel.
This patch is fixing this particular issue, a following one
adds more sanity checks for another potential bug.
