Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
geneve: fix header validation in geneve[6]_xmit_skb<br />
<br />
syzbot is able to trigger an uninit-value in geneve_xmit() [1]<br />
<br />
Problem : While most ip tunnel helpers (like ip_tunnel_get_dsfield())<br />
uses skb_protocol(skb, true), pskb_inet_may_pull() is only using<br />
skb->protocol.<br />
<br />
If anything else than ETH_P_IPV6 or ETH_P_IP is found in skb->protocol,<br />
pskb_inet_may_pull() does nothing at all.<br />
<br />
If a vlan tag was provided by the caller (af_packet in the syzbot case),<br />
the network header might not point to the correct location, and skb<br />
linear part could be smaller than expected.<br />
<br />
Add skb_vlan_inet_prepare() to perform a complete mac validation.<br />
<br />
Use this in geneve for the moment, I suspect we need to adopt this<br />
more broadly.<br />
<br />
v4 - Jakub reported v3 broke l2_tos_ttl_inherit.sh selftest<br />
- Only call __vlan_get_protocol() for vlan types.<br />
<br />
v2,v3 - Addressed Sabrina comments on v1 and v2<br />
