This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tcp_metrics: validate source addr length to the 6.9-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: tcp_metrics-validate-source-addr-length.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 829e92a99951e4d6e6892334090178fde457968d Author: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Jun 27 14:25:00 2024 -0700 tcp_metrics: validate source addr length [ Upstream commit 66be40e622e177316ae81717aa30057ba9e61dff ] I don't see anything checking that TCP_METRICS_ATTR_SADDR_IPV4 is at least 4 bytes long, and the policy doesn't have an entry for this attribute at all (neither does it for IPv6 but v6 is manually validated).
