[PATCH] net: usb: smsc95xx: Limit packet length to skb->len
Posted by Szymon Heidrich 2 years, 11 months ago 
Packet length retrieved from skb data may be larger than
the actual socket buffer length (up to 1526 bytes). In such
case the cloned skb passed up the network stack will leak
kernel memory contents.

We need this check on both sides of the big if {} statement.

In case the error bit is set and we drop the packet we still
end up in skb_pull() which if size > skb->len will panic the
kernel.

So let's do this check right after size and align are calculated?
The patch for smsc75xx has sadly already been applied so you'll
need to prepare a fix to the fix :(

Thank you very much for you suggestions Kuba, I provided an updated patch for
smsc95xx and a new patch addressing smsc75xx. Please let me know in case additional
amendments are required.
[PATCH v2] net: usb: smsc95xx: Limit packet length to skb->len
Posted by Szymon Heidrich 2 years, 11 months ago 
Packet length retrieved from descriptor may be larger than
the actual socket buffer length. In such case the cloned
skb passed up the network stack will leak kernel memory contents.
