Subject: [PATCH net v2 1/4] ip_tunnel: Fix a memory corruption in ip_tunnel_xmit
Date: Tue, 1 Oct 2013 11:33:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131001093359.GG7660@secunet.com> (raw)

We might extend the used aera of a skb beyond the total
headroom when we install the ipip header. Fix this by
calling skb_cow_head() unconditionally.

Bug was introduced with commit c544193214
("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")
