Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xsk: tighten UMEM headroom validation to account for tailroom and min frame The current headroom validation in xdp_umem_reg() could leave us with insufficient space dedicated to even receive minimum-sized ethernet frame. Furthermore if multi-buffer would come to play then skb_shared_info stored at the end of XSK frame would be corrupted. HW typically works with 128-aligned sizes so let us provide this value as bare minimum. Multi-buffer setting is known later in the configuration process so besides accounting for 128 bytes, let us also take care of tailroom space upfront.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 4.19.118 < 4.20) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.4.35 < 5.5) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.6.7 < 5.7) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.7.1 < 6.6.136) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.83) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.24) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 6.19.14) • linux linux kernel 5.7 • linux linux kernel 7.0
