Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vsock/virtio: fix potential unbounded skb queue virtio_transport_inc_rx_pkt() checks vvs->rx_bytes + len > vvs->buf_alloc. virtio_transport_recv_enqueue() skips coalescing for packets with VIRTIO_VSOCK_SEQ_EOM. If fed with packets with len == 0 and VIRTIO_VSOCK_SEQ_EOM, a very large number of packets can be queued because vvs->rx_bytes stays at 0. Fix this by estimating the skb metadata size: (Number of skbs in the queue) * SKB_TRUESIZE(0)

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 6.1.63 < 6.2) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.3.1 < 6.12.94) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.18.36) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.19 < 7.0.13) • linux linux kernel 6.3 • linux linux kernel 7.1
