TITLE

Linux  of  Linux Kernel  In  NULL  Pointer dereference vulnerability

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.

Linux of Linux Kernel for, NULL There is a vulnerability in pointer dereference.Service operation interruption (DoS) It may be in a state. The RUGGEDCOM RST2428P is a Layer 2 Ethernet switch based on SINEC OS with up to 28 non-blocking interfaces. SCALANCE X switches are used to connect industrial components such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interfaces (HMIs). Multiple vulnerabilities exist in third-party components prior to SIEMENS SINEC OS V3.2. These vulnerabilities could be exploited to corrupt values, leading to undefined behavior or security issues
