In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: handle unreadable frags
sashiko reports:
When an skb with unreadable fragments (such as from devmem TCP, where
skb_frags_readable(skb) returns false) is processed by the u32 module,
skb_copy_bits() will safely return a negative error code [..]
xt_u32: bail out with hotdrop in this case.
gather_frags: return -1, just as if we had no fragment header.
nfnetlink_queue: restrict to the linear part.
nfnetlink_log: restrict to the linear part.
v2:
- skb_zerocopy helpers don't copy readable flag, i.e. nfnetlink_queue
is broken too
xt_u32 shouldn't return true if hotdrop was set.
