When\nthe skb arrives via napi_gro_frags(), skb_headlen can be 0 (all data in\npage fragments) while skb_gro_offset is non-zero (after IP+TCP header\nparsing). The skb_pull() then decrements skb->len by skb_gro_offset\nbut skb->data_len stays unchanged, hitting BUG_ON(skb->len < skb->data_len)\nin __skb_pull().\n\nThe UDP fraglist GRO path already contains this guard at\nudp_offload.c:749. Adding it to skb_gro_receive_list() itself provides\ncentralized protection for all callers (TCP, UDP, and any future\nprotocols), and ensures the precondition of skb_pull() is satisfied\nbefore it is called.\n\nOn pskb_may_pull() failure, set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush = 1 so the\nskb is not held as a new GRO head and is instead delivered through the\nnormal receive path, matching the UDP handling."}],"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","baseScore":7.5,"baseSeverity":"HIGH"}}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/core/gro.c"],"versions":[{"version":"8d95dc474f85481652a0e422d2f1f079de81f63c","lessThan":"9e636c995b7beeb74ea882968248752821c244c4","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d95dc474f85481652a0e422d2f1f079de81f63c","lessThan":"0cde3a004119db637b401c54e77536e4145fc0b4","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d95dc474f85481652a0e422d2f1f079de81f63c","lessThan":"848571dcbbbea7ba44dd4f7ebe1fbb274afe08ac","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d95dc474f85481652a0e422d2f1f079de81f63c","lessThan":"f2bb3434544454099a5b6dec213567267b05d79d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/core/gro.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.10","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.10","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.94","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.36","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.13","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.94"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.36"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.13"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.10","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9e636c995b7beeb74ea882968248752821c244c4"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0cde3a004119db637b401c54e77536e4145fc0b4"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/848571dcbbbea7ba44dd4f7ebe1fbb274afe08ac"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f2bb3434544454099a5b6dec213567267b05d79d"}],"title":"net: add pskb_may_pull() to skb_gro_receive_list()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
