Subject: [PATCH net] net: skbuff: reject zero MPLS TTL before decrementing
Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2026 13:41:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261031114135.3784868-2-thnkslprpt@gmail.com> (raw)
skb_mpls_dec_ttl() decrements the u8 TTL before checking whether it
expired. An incoming TTL of zero wraps to 255, causing the TC MPLS
dec_ttl action to pass an expired packet instead of dropping it.
Reject a zero TTL before the decrement while preserving the existing
behavior for TTL one and valid TTL values.
Fixes: 2a2ea50870ba ("net: sched: add mpls manipulation actions to TC")
