This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled netfilter: nft_exthdr: Fix for unsafe packet data read to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: netfilter-nft_exthdr-fix-for-unsafe-packet-data-read.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit f51e61672dd183021c0c8b64a2d160524fe71823 Author: Phil Sutter <phil@xxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 8 11:40:57 2021 +0200 netfilter: nft_exthdr: Fix for unsafe packet data read [ Upstream commit cf6b5ffdce5a78b2fcb0e53b3a2487c490bcbf7f ] While iterating through an SCTP packet's chunks, skb_header_pointer() is called for the minimum expected chunk header size. If (that part of) the skbuff is non-linear, the following memcpy() may read data past temporary buffer '_sch'. Use skb_copy_bits() instead which does the right thing in this situation.
