Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: gro: don&#39;t merge zcopy skbs<br />
<br />
skb_gro_receive() can currently copy frags between the source and GRO<br />
skb, without checking the zerocopy status, and in particular the<br />
SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS flag.<br />
<br />
When SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS is set, the skb doesn&#39;t hold a reference<br />
on the pages in shinfo->frags. Appending those frags to another skb&#39;s<br />
frags without fixing up the page refcount can lead to UAF.<br />
<br />
When either the last skb in the GRO chain (the one we would append<br />
frags to) or the source skb is zerocopy, don&#39;t merge the skbs.
