4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b84bbaf7a6c8cca24f8acf25a2c8e46913a947ba ] Packet sockets allow construction of packets shorter than dev->hard_header_len to accommodate protocols with variable length link layer headers. These packets are padded to dev->hard_header_len, because some device drivers interpret that as a minimum packet size. packet_snd reserves dev->hard_header_len bytes on allocation. SOCK_DGRAM sockets call skb_push in dev_hard_header() to ensure that link layer headers are stored in the reserved range. SOCK_RAW sockets do the same in tpacket_snd, but not in packet_snd. Syzbot was able to send a zero byte packet to a device with massive 116B link layer header, causing padding to cross over into skb_shinfo. Fix this by writing from the start of the llheader reserved range also in the case of packet_snd/SOCK_RAW. Update skb_set_network_header to the new offset. This also corrects it for SOCK_DGRAM, where it incorrectly double counted reserve due to the skb_push in dev_hard_header.
