Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s net/core/skbuff.c subsystem. The GSO_BY_FRAGS is a forbidden value and allows the following computation in skb_segment() to reach it. The : mss = mss * partial_segs and many initial mss values can lead to a bad final result. Limit the segmentation so that the new mss value is smaller than GSO_BY_FRAGS.

Created kernel tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 2265293] This was fixed for Fedora with the 6.6.11 stable kernel updates. The result of automatic check (that is developed by Alexander Larkin) for this CVE-2023-52435 is: CHECK Maybe valid. Check manually. with impact LOW (that is an approximation based on flags REMOTE KASAN DANGER NULLPTR SKB ; these flags parsed automatically based on patch data). Such automatic check happens only for Low/Moderates (and only when not from reporter, but parsing already existing CVE). Highs always checked manually (I check it myself and then we check it again in Remediation team). In rare cases some of the Moderates could be increased to High later. |
