[PATCH net v2] net: dpaa: Pad packets to ETH_ZLEN

From: Sean Anderson
Date: Tue Sep 10 2024 - 10:32:13 EST


When sending packets under 60 bytes, up to three bytes of the buffer
following the data may be leaked. Avoid this by extending all packets to
ETH_ZLEN, ensuring nothing is leaked in the padding. This bug can be
reproduced by running

$ ping -s 11 destination

Fixes: 9ad1a3749333 ("dpaa_eth: add support for DPAA Ethernet")
Suggested-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changes in v2:
- Fix the nonlinear varable becoming out-of-sync with the skb's
linearization state by padding the packet before anything else.
