Kernel: tcp: integer overflow while processing SACK blocks allows remote denial of service

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's networking subsystem processed TCP Selective Acknowledgment SACK segments. While processing SACK segments, the Linux kernel's socket buffer SKB data structure becomes fragmented. Each fragment is about TCP maximum segment size MSS...
