Subject: [PATCH net-next 5/5] net/sched: netem: handle multi-segment skb in corruption
Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2026 15:52:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260403225324.476787-6-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260403225324.476787-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
The packet corruption code only flipped bits in the linear
header portion of the skb, skipping corruption when
skb_headlen() was zero.
Use skb_header_pointer() and skb_store_bits() to access the
full packet data, allowing any bit in the packet to be
corrupted regardless of how the skb is laid out.
Replaces d64cb81dcbd5 ("net/sched: sch_netem: fix
out-of-bounds access in packet corruption") with a more
general solution.
