Description SMASH SMASH 2024-04-04 14:51:03 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tunnels: fix out of bounds access when building IPv6 PMTU error

If the ICMPv6 error is built from a non-linear skb we get the following
splat,

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in do_csum+0x220/0x240

Use skb_checksum instead of csum_partial who cannot deal with non-linear
SKBs.

Comment 5 Nikolay Borisov 2024-07-10 09:23:10 UTC
Backports pushed to SLE15-SP[56]. Since the CVESS rating is 5.5, which is lower than 7, LTSS aren't eligible to get the backport so I conside this as fixed.
