CVE-2024-38538
Disclosure Date: June 19, 2024 (last updated November 17, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: xmit: make sure we have at least eth header len bytes
syzbot triggered an uninit value[1] error in bridge device's xmit path
by sending a short (less than ETH_HLEN bytes) skb. To fix it check if
we can actually pull that amount instead of assuming.
Tested with dropwatch:
drop at: br_dev_xmit+0xb93/0x12d0 [bridge] (0xffffffffc06739b3)
origin: software
timestamp: Mon May 13 11:31:53 2024 778214037 nsec
protocol: 0x88a8
