"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udp: do not accept non-tunnel GSO skbs landing in a tunnel When rx-
udp-gro-forwarding is enabled UDP packets might be GROed when being
forwarded. If such packets might land in a tunnel this can cause
various issues and udp_gro_receive makes sure this isn't the case by
looking for a matching socket. This is performed in
udp4/6_gro_lookup_skb but only in the current netns. This is an issue
with tunneled packets when the endpoint is in another netns. In such
cases the packets will be GROed at the UDP level, which leads to
various issues later on. The same thing can happen with rx-gro-list.
We saw this with geneve packets being GROed at the UDP level. In such
case gso_size is set; later the packet goes through the geneve rx
path, the geneve header is pulled, the offset are adjusted and
frag_list skbs are not adjusted with regard to geneve. When those
skbs hit skb_fragment, it will misbehave. Different outcomes are
possible depending on what the GROed skbs look like; from corrupted
packets to kernel crashes. One example is a BUG_ON[1] triggered in
skb_segment while processing the frag_list. Because gso_size is wrong
(geneve header was pulled) skb_segment thinks there is geneve header
size of data in frag_list, although it's in fact the next packet.
The BUG_ON itself has nothing to do with the issue. This is only one
of the potential issues. Looking up for a matching socket in
udp_gro_receive is fragile: the lookup could be extended to all netns
(not speaking about performances) but nothing prevents those packets
from being modified in between and we could still not find a matching
socket. It's OK to keep the current logic there as it should cover
most cases but we also need to make sure we handle tunnel packets
being GROed too early. This is done by extending the checks in
udp_unexpected_gso: GSO packets lacking the SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL/_CSUM
bits and landing in a tunnel must be segmented. [1] kernel BUG at
net/core/skbuff.c:4408! RIP: 0010:skb_segment+0xd2a/0xf70
