This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled staging: most: net: fix buffer overflow to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-testing branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will be merged to the staging-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 4d1356ac12f4d5180d0df345d85ff0ee42b89c72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrey Shvetsov <andrey.shvetsov@xxxxxx> Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2020 18:22:39 +0100 Subject: staging: most: net: fix buffer overflow If the length of the socket buffer is 0xFFFFFFFF (max size for an unsigned int), then payload_len becomes 0xFFFFFFF1 after subtracting 14 (ETH_HLEN). Then, mdp_len is set to payload_len + 16 (MDP_HDR_LEN) which overflows and results in a value of 2. These values for payload_len and mdp_len will pass current buffer size checks. This patch checks if derived from skb->len sum may overflow. The check is based on the following idea: For any `unsigned V1, V2` and derived `unsigned SUM = V1 + V2`, `V1 + V2` overflows iif `SUM < V1`.
