This CVE record has been marked for NVD enrichment efforts.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: pull headers in qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init()
Most ndo_start_xmit() methods expects headers of gso packets
to be already in skb->head.
net/core/tso.c users are particularly at risk, because tso_build_hdr()
does a memcpy(hdr, skb->data, hdr_len);
qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init() already does a dissection of gso packets.
Use pskb_may_pull() instead of skb_header_pointer() to make
sure drivers do not have to reimplement this.
Some malicious packets could be fed, detect them so that we can
drop them sooner with a new SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_BAD_GSO drop_reason.
