From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 15:51:38 +0000 (+0000) Subject: ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip4ip6_err() X-Git-Tag: v7.0-rc7~28^2~38 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2edfa31769a4add828a7e604b21cb82aaaa05925;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip4ip6_err() Oskar Kjos reported the following problem. ip4ip6_err() calls icmp_send() on a cloned skb whose cb[] was written by the IPv6 receive path as struct inet6_skb_parm. icmp_send() passes IPCB(skb2) to __ip_options_echo(), which interprets that cb[] region as struct inet_skb_parm (IPv4). The layouts differ: inet6_skb_parm.nhoff at offset 14 overlaps inet_skb_parm.opt.rr, producing a non-zero rr value. __ip_options_echo() then reads optlen from attacker-controlled packet data at sptr[rr+1] and copies that many bytes into dopt->__data, a fixed 40-byte stack buffer (IP_OPTIONS_DATA_FIXED_SIZE). To fix this we clear skb2->cb[], as suggested by Oskar Kjos. Also add minimal IPv4 header validation (version == 4, ihl >= 5). Fixes: c4d3efafcc93 ("[IPV6] IP6TUNNEL: Add support to IPv4 over IPv6 tunnel.")
