[PATCH net 2/2] tun: add missing verification for short frame

From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Wed Jul 24 2024 - 13:06:50 EST


The cited commit missed to check against the validity of the frame length
in the tun_xdp_one() path, which could cause a corrupted skb to be sent
downstack. Even before the skb is transmitted, the
tun_xdp_one-->eth_type_trans() may access the Ethernet header although it
can be less than ETH_HLEN. Once transmitted, this could either cause
out-of-bound access beyond the actual length, or confuse the underlayer
with incorrect or inconsistent header length in the skb metadata.

In the alternative path, tun_get_user() already prohibits short frame which
has the length less than Ethernet header size from being transmitted for
IFF_TAP.

This is to drop any frame shorter than the Ethernet header size just like
how tun_get_user() does.
