Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  net: dsa: tag_brcm: legacy FCS: request needed tailroom  The legacy FCS tagger calculates the CRC over skb->len bytes starting at skb->data. When a nonlinear skb reaches the tagger, this reads past the linear head into unrelated slab memory.  The tagger appends an Ethernet FCS but does not declare that tailroom. As a result, DSA leaves NETIF_F_SG and NETIF_F_FRAGLIST enabled on the user port, and nonlinear skbs can reach the CRC calculation.  Declare the required tailroom. DSA will then clear those features and the networking core will linearize skbs before the tagger runs.  A KASAN-enabled dsa_loop test using this tagger reports:    BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in crc32_le   Read of size 1 at addr ffff8880397086c0 by task exp/135    Call Trace:    crc32_le (lib/crc/crc32-main.c:38)    brcm_leg_fcs_tag_xmit (net/dsa/tag_brcm.c:343)    dsa_user_xmit (net/dsa/user.c:942)    dev_hard_start_xmit (net/core/dev.c:3937)    __dev_queue_xmit (net/core/dev.c:4926)    packet_sendmsg (net/packet/af_packet.c:3110)    __sys_sendto (net/socket.c:2281)    The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888039708400    which belongs to the cache skbuff_small_head of size 704   The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of    allocated 704-byte region [ffff888039708400, ffff8880397086c0)
