- Summary
- tunnels: do not assume mac header is set in skb_tunnel_check_pmtu()
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tunnels: do not assume mac header is set in skbtunnelcheck_pmtu()
Recently added debug in commit f9aefd6b2aa3 ("net: warn if mac header was not set") caught a bug in skbtunnelcheck_pmtu(), as shown in this syzbot report [1].
In ndostartxmit() paths, there is really no need to use skb->mac_header, because skb->data is supposed to point at it.
