Linux kernel security vulnerabilities

A security vulnerability exists in Linux kernel versions 5.9.13 through 5.10. It arises because packetrcvspkt fails to check whether a link layer header exists on a device when restoring it; as a result, devices lacking a visible link layer header trigger skbunderpanic, leading to a kernel crash...
